I have news for you....Christm...Dear sweet becca. I have news for you....Christmas is only just about to begin! Tonight's the night! Which means that you have until Epiphany to even call them Christmas cards (and um, I want one, hint hint hint). Unless you're going reallly really old school and then you can celebrate, even keep the tree up, until Candlemass...which is at the very end of Jan or beg of Feb! See, honey, you've got tons of time!!!!!! :)<br /><br />On the other hand.....Stop. Step back. Take a deep breath and gaze. See those funny goofy gorgeous kiddos? See that sweet funny husband who is crazy about you? See that shining exciting future shimmering just beyond your little (half packed but it can wait a few more days to do more) house? See you, beautiful you, with your turigeum (sp?) free eyes an your new or almost to be short coif? Do a wide angle panoramic memory snapshot. This is rare air and it's ALL christmas, even the packing boxes. There is NUTHIN, but NUTHIN measly about it. <br /><br />Light a candle in the cold tonight and sing your favorite Christmas song.<br />It's Christmas, tonight, midnight!!!!! Rejoice and be glad and shed the guilts and gather in the good. I know you see it....it just got kicked under the packing tape for a few......<br /><br />You'll be in my prayers this morning for an extra dollop of Christmas joy, with whipped cream on top!

This is a friendly, loving REALITY CHECK!
You...Ok. This is a friendly, loving REALITY CHECK!<br /><br />You are a mom to three young, busy children. You have a husband that I am assuming you have a real relationship with, meaning it takes more time. You have work, writing, and all the normal day to day stuff that needs doing. <br /><br />PLUS you guys our sending Husband to school meaning more financial, emotional and time stretch. <br /><br />PLLUUUSSS: You are having to sort, pack, and clean.<br /><br />I'm thinking you have earned yourself a big, fat pass, a direct route, do not stop, pass GO on some grace for yourself. <br /><br />You are doing tons. You don't need to do more. Stop. Breath deeply into all your cells and show yourself some grace. <br /><br />LOVE YOU.<br /><br />TAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
