Merry Christmas to all of you who celebrate this holiday and Happy Holidays for those of you who do not.
I just finished putting the presents under the tree and consuming the cookies and milk left out by my kids for "Santa." As usual, I left just a little on the plate and in the glass to make it clear that "he" ate while here, which always seems to make them more excited. This holiday always makes me feel a little festive, even if I end up a bit sleep deprived the next morning when they wake us up to show us what Santa left them. The one oddly poignant moment tonight was when the kids said goodbye to the Elf on the Shelf as they headed to bed, since of course the elf is going back to the North Pole tonight with Santa.
I hope some of you are able to make more good Christmas memories as well, even as we all deal with the normal trials and tribulations that life throws at us.
