December, Here We Come...



Thanksgiving was a blast, I admit--very mellow and playful and my kids were fantastic! They all pitched in with the meal preparation and clean-up and we had a great time talking over "family history" and such. The day AFTER Thanksgiving is traditionally "Decoration Day" and they stuck around to help get the house in shape for the Christmas month. Things are festive, the fridge is full of leftovers and it has been a very full weekend. How lovely to have four days off to spend with my kids!

Tomorrow brings us back to reality, however, as we are all back to the real world of responsibility, holiday preparations and such. Lucy has finals coming up, Lilly is trying to get all her paperwork done to get back into school, Stuart is recouping from so much social activity and Kori has a list a mile long of tasks to be accomplished. Regardless, we are in good company with everyone else facing long task lists. It is so strange to realize that 2008 is nearly done--where did it all go?!
