Merry Christmas, everyone. We made it, literally.
Congratulations to all of you, the Holiday Bringers And Makers. You brought it to life again. Well done. In the coming days, insist on your rest. Everything else can wait. Truly, it can.
In this photo you are seeing Theo's gifts from Nana and Pa and Gunga. Our family decided only to buy for Theo, gratefully streamlining our Christmas. Pa made him a solid oak rocking horse. The biggest (and most) packages are from Gunga, who is the most indulgent uncle ever. Those two are smitten with each other.
Enjoy your family, friends, and your tree this Christmas. Cherish your health and your home. And remember to treat yourself as the athlete you are for accomplishing this feat called Christmas: relax, rest, and recover.
Love, love, love this, Nance. I especially like that the presents are all dedicated to Theo. And that your tree lights are all white. And, oh my gosh, a solid oak rocking horse!
ReplyDeleteOur Christmas got hijacked somewhat. Rushed Mr. O. to the E.R. on Christmas Eve. Nasty post-surgery infection. He’s on heavy antibiotics and hopefully home by tomorrow when we can both “relax, rest, and recover.”
Looking forward to a better year for all of us, most especially dear friends like you who always find the best words and manage to shine a light on us even in your own moments of hardship. You are a real trouper and my best blog-friend role model... 💕💕💕
Merry Christmas Nance! I was awoken by a shit ton of rain and wind at 3:30 this morning and started worrying about the drive we are making today. I didn’t really sleep well after that, but I relaxed in bed with a collagen mask. HA! Now we’re waiting for Maya to wake up, and the rain has passed us by for a bit.
