is it just me...???

is it just me or does this time of year go from "oh I have plenty of time"... to "whoa where did all the time go?" It's like one minute you've got it all under control - and the next, you're totally out of control. I made a to-do list yesterday which has definitely pushed me into getting some stuff done, which does feel good, but there is still a lot left on the list let me tell you! Anyone else??? Oh well, what doesn't get done just doesn't! I just want to enjoy this Christmas. My girls are at the perfect ages, and I know the magic isn't going to last forever in their eyes! I love listening to Meritt sing "Bingle Bells, Bingle Bells..." as we push the cart through Target. I love that Bella wants to make cards and gifts for everyone she loves. I love that Meritt squeals with delight when she sees "Hanta"... even though she says she's too scared to talk to "Hanta". It's just fun. These funny little things, the being together that's what it's about. Not the to-do's, the wrapping, and the baking. So, join me in taking a cleansing breath............. Ahhhhhhhh now doesn't that feel better? It does to me!
