Well here we are. It's the end of 2008 and the Christmas season is upon us.
I'm not sure what's wrong with me (something SURELY is!) but I'm not one bit interested in shopping this year! Is it the current economy or just the sheer fact that shopping is overrated and I need something more challenging? Who knows. I plan all year for this season by shopping early and slaving over the stove making homemade goodies for family and friends. I wonder if I've just stockpiled enough that I can't justify spending? Either way, I feel great! (and you thought I was going to start complaining!)
Our friends, Mike and Aimee, had their baby Lucy today. 8 months ago I would have thought 'that's cool, good for them' but today I know it's the single most incredible thing that happens to us in our lives. I'm excited for them! I'm so grateful that I can appreciate that. I LOVE being a mom! Who would have thought...
