With the holidays here it feels like there is always something going on. From parties and choir performances to gathering supplies and gifts so as to be ready for the big day. This year has felt more busy than normal. I have to remind myself to slow down and enjoy the little moments that truly make Christmas time magical. For instance the falling snow that started our morning off yesterday. The girls were thrilled to hear it was snowing. They squealed while throwing the door open and peeked into the dark morning taking in the white frosted side walk. It was awesome to see their excitement.
After school yesterday they worked hard to decorate our windows with Christmas gel clings.
This picture was during breakfast on Sunday morning. I know I am going to miss these days of all my girls being little. This was a rare morning where everyone was happy and cooperative.
I keep thinking if I get such and such done I will have more time to just sit and be present. I realize this is a faulty thought and am trying to live more in the moment. I am grateful to be able to make these Christmas memories. It truly is a magical time of the year.
