The Aftermath

Boxing Day? I should say so. The house is appropriately trashed. Sign of a good party I suppose. The garbage can is overflowing. Laundry is piled higher than Camille. I am exhausted. Can I be getting sick? I woke up with zero desire to hit the stores. I must have a fever. Christmas was wonderful. Full of friends, family and too much food. William even took work of Christmas Eve. That is a very rare occurrence. Usually in order to get him to take a day off, I need to take him out of the country! It was so nice to stay up late Christmas Eve and talk while we were getting everything ready. It was six years ago that he proposed for the first time. That's a story for another day. I can't believe it's been 6 years since we found him and Zac. The girls and I are so blessed to have them. My life is full. The kids all loved their presents. Zac got a new Ipod. His old one was, as he put it, dumb. Megan freaked when she found her first "blue box" hidden down deep in her stocking. She's tried 50 times to re-tie the bow as it came. Camille has not put her DS down. We are blessed. I think college will be the cheaper years. Zac has informed us that it is time for us to start looking at a car for him. Um, no. We are having fun teaching him to drive. It snowed this morning and then promptly melted. Maybe next time it will stick. I am looking forward to having this week off of work. I will get to do some fun things with the kids.
