Love, Joy and PEACE


I was starring at this on my tree, which is located in our "temporary" home and I was just wondering, where oh where will I be this time next year. This weekend marks the beginning of the "transition" phase of our move. And in 8 short days, I will no longer live here in THIS home, the home that has all my children's heights displayed in the door facing of the pantry. (Which I'm having removed by the way and taking with me) I love Christmas and I must admit, it's been weird not to have our halls here all decked. But the next 8 days will be super busy...starting with tonight. Meeting up for dinner with friends to say our "see ya laters". And Christmas programs at the preschool we have adored since Barret was two, and the baptism of my dear sweet nephew Carter, and the 10th birthday of my first born. (How is that possible?) Finishing up last minute shopping, unpacking at the "temporary" house, cleaning at the "on the market" house, wrapping gifts...and {sigh} What I am I forgetting? I can't wait for the kids to get out of school, and start our annual traditions of baking together, watching Christmas movies, drinking hot chocolate and reading Christmas stories. And all this will be in the cozy comfort of our "temporary" home, which is adorable, the halls are decked, has splendid views which most of all are of my children running around in the PEACE and quiet of the country! I hope you all are having a PEACEful holiday season:)
