The excitement of Christmas just isn't the same as it once was twenty years ago. I blame it on retail mostly, and the fact that I didn't have any games or dolls to play with after gifts were opened. I sat there, drinking my coffee in my new white cozy bathrobe and thought about how Christmas morning used to be. My sister and I would wake each other up, go downstairs to see if santa came then for hours tried waking my parents up until finally at 5:30 in the morning they agreed to wake up so we could tear apart wrapping paper and see what santa had brought us. This year, we slept in late, my parents already had dressed up and I knew mostly what I was getting, with a few surprises. All in all I'm not too sure about this growing up thing, I do not see the perks in it. Although I got an amazing new purse, and some great clothes I have wanted for awhile, santa was still very generous.
I was gonna say, you had no idea what I was buying you!!!
ReplyDeleteim so cute
ReplyDeleteYeah, when the folks and everyone start sleeping in on Christmas morning you know the Santa Luster has dimmed. Still, Xmas always makes me happy. Mostly because Jon and I are lucky to have a wonderful family. I hope you had a great holiday and THANK YOU for the hat! I haven't received a handmade gift in... well, a LONG long time. Lara and I will prolly be seeing you soon I hope. Stay warm in the Nor'Easter,
