I am just sitting here tonight doing some wondering.
When did kids get to be so rude to their parents and grandparents?
The lack of respect is ridiculous. I really don't think that we are that stupid. Some how I thought that once they were older it would get better. Ha!
On another note...
I replaced my Christmas tree angel this year. After 25 years of blessings, she has retired. I didn't realize how upset my daughter was going to be with me. I explained to her that she was exhaused, her lights no longer worked and her bottom was broke (and as my husband said, just how my time do you think you could have a Christmas tree shoved up your ass! Yes I know he said it and I have to admit it I was thinking it! We are a pair. )
Yes, I love traditions, the stockings, the tree, the lights, the great food and the squeals of the kids but it was her time.
That does bring up the question....what is one to do with a retired Christmas angel? Well I decided that I would have her grace my kitchen window and hopefully she will bless my cooking!
On another note, thanks to my wonderful daughter, Kalisha, she is an amazing help to me. (and volunteers for it!) I think she might like Christmas decorating as much as I do (other than the Christmas music I have playing all day! I know she secretly loves my singing! ;)
Happy Holidays!
