Christmas Eve
2:40 a.m. - 2007-12-24
Offically it is Christmas eve. For some reason on Saturday the spirit of Christmas just took over me. Seriously. Suddenly I was jolly and happy and full of goodwill to all. I am not sure what the hell happened to me, but I found myself retardedly in the Christmas spirit. Lets put it this way, the kitchen cabinet doors, and drawers are now sporting wrapping paper and bows, looking quite spiffy as if they are gifts. Brightly wrapped ones at that. If I had any money left, I would have bounded off to the stores to spend it all on more presents. Etc.
You get the idea.
At church today I was amid some of the bah-humbugs of the season and I cheerily sang "its beginning to look a lot like Christmas" to them, in spite of the imminent danger of losing my tongue with each word. I do believe they think I am taking drugs now. Nice.
I want to savor this joyous occassion. I think part of my sudden change in mood comes from the fact that Amy has not given birth prematurely! That in 3 short weeks there will be another baby around, one that has gone full term this time. One that can proudly wear blue and will be eyed suspiciously if seen in pink. One that should weigh more then 3 pounds! One I won't be afraid to hold due to its tiny size. One that is finally healthy.
It is crazy, Heather is going to be 17 soon. That blows my mind. My baby.
I hope this Christmas everyone is blessed and safe. God bless you.
