Christmas Eve....

I don't know what it is, but this year Christmas Eve just doesn't feel like it is really Christmas. Maybe it is because my kids are older and some of the thrill of secrecy is gone. Who knows. We use to go drive around and look at Christmas lights but they are everywhere now so you really don't have to go looking for them. The kids are old enough that they don't need any entertaining from us.
I do remember that the fun part is not the reason we celebrate this time of year, but this year that is the part of the season that I am missing!
I don't want my kids to be little again by any means, but I would love to be feeling some of that old magic that use to make it so hard to fall asleep.
Merry Christmas everyone, my your Christmas be filled magic. And may we always remember the joy of the special baby born on Christmas night!

I'm sorry that you felt like the "magic" was missing - but I'm glad you came over and cheered me up! You are always so good at making me feel loved - hopefully one day you'll realize how much joy you bring to others. You are the best Jana. I love you!
