I don’t want the Christmas haze to fade. I want the scattered toys to remain where they lay, to be picked up and played with at any given moment. For the magic that is Christmas to linger with us…The twinkle lights, merry carols, and anxious countdown of my children all lead up to my favorite part of the whole day. When on this early morning while snow gently fell I received the best gift a mom could get I got to see the joy and amazed expressions as they unwrapped their gifts.
Unfortunately the Christmas haze has to fade. We’ve got so much to do before our move to Miami and six-teen days to do it. I’ve got so much I want to write and say before 2010 is behind us, but for now, I’ll leave you with a photo from this Christmas and a little haiku.
Christmas haze please stay
Surprised face you can’t mistake
