Isn't this what the Saturday before Christmas is all about?
Shopping with the family ... not getting upset that you can't find a parking place ... buying yourself and your daughter festive Christmas sweaters (OK, so that is me in the obligatory 40-something-mom novelty sweater and I'm proud of it) ... watching your child talk to Santa (more about that tomorrow) ... coming home to a quick hiding of presents from one another ... a quick easy dinner of pasta ... and then ... watching "IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE".
So be proud of me that I didn't stress over the Christmas cards yet to write ... the cookies yet to be baked ... the laundry yet to be done ... the house that desperately needs cleaning ... and OH ... there's the tree ... still on the porch! That's tomorrow's project ... after church.
Ahhh... Church on Christmas Sunday, I honestly can't wait. God is good, and today more that usual, I know in my heart that He is good to me!
