Today I am going to write about the Christmas holiday that is coming up in three days. I love Christmas because you get to see family members and you have a party. You get presents at Christmas, and even though you get presents on your birthday, you get much more at Christmas time. I feel like you get more presents on Christmas than your birthday because I see a lot of extended family members at Christmas time, and on my birthday I only see my immediate. Every Christmas I have a party at my house on Christmas Day and my uncle makes special pancakes. I only get his pancakes once a year. We also do a Secret Santa with my cousins and if you don't know how it works it goes like this: you each pick a name out of a bag and whoever you get you buy a present for them. We also have a winter break from school for the holiday. My family and I take lots of pictures. I am super excited for Christmas. 😃

Christmas Countdown
The first holiday party is under our belts. Full steam ahead.
This past weekend we spent some quality time with some dear friends, but not without some drama at home first - doesn’t that always happen? I wake up thinking it’ll be a good day. But just when we least suspect, something goes awry. It will take huge efforts from all 5 of us to get back on track (if we even do) and continue the course of the day we had planned. Fortunately we did make it to our dinner party and we did enjoy our time with our friends. That is something we’ll be reminding ourselves at every gathering we have. We will not be distracted from feeling loved & blessed, we will be grateful for every moment we have with the people we love, and we will be happy.
Christmas isn’t my favourite time of year but my children love it. And they are looking forward to spending time with their cousins. We always have many special meals and a huge family party. This year I’ll be hosting dinner for my family - I even bought a turkey! I’ve always said keeping busy is good - it gives me a purpose - something to look forward to - and right now some family time is exactly what I need.
14 days left to Christmas, 20 days to 2019.
