MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

I am forever sighing at the forever gone cute, cuddly, fat cheeked, toddling, a hug and a kiss can fix everything stage of my kids lives.

Today, however, hubby and I slept until 7 AM, at which point my 13 yr. old entered our bedroom, said "Merry Christmas; it's 7:00," (indicating, obviously, a very civilized time to rise and shine).  He woke our awesome sleeper and we all went downstairs and opened presents.

There are clearly advantages to kids growing up!!!
