Christmas morning came not only with flying reindeer...but flying wrapping paper too! It was a whirlwind of paper and flutter of excitement! As with years passed, Jonas was up first and woke up all his siblings as he tried to patiently wait for them to get ready so he could finally go to the living room. Once they were all assembled, we spent the next hour taking turns as each child got to open gifts...some for him/hersself and some for the family. It may take me hours to wrap them all, but it doesn't take that long to unwrap them. Still, the excitement on their faces makes it all worth it!
Christmas Day seems to come and go so quickly! After opening gifts, we had our traditional waffle breakfast then went to church where we enjoyed an hour of Christmas music and a brief reading of Luke 2. I kind of liked the fact that Christmas was on a Sunday this year. It helped us refocus...even if just for an hour. The rest of the day was spent enjoying the gifts! I can't believe another year is in the books.
