I have so much to be thankful for this year and today is my day to slow down, breathe and be happy about it all :) Merry Christmas!!!
Wonderful reminder. I could do that.

I could use a reminder to slow down and enjoy the season also. Tonight we went on a trolley ride as a family and much to our surprise Santa joined us. My two year old was so excited and waving at Santa and telling Santa to look every time she saw Christmas lights-yes every time! This week especially I've wanted to hug my children and my students a bit more than usual. Unfortunately we don't know what tomorrow will bring so I'm trying to remember to enjoy every moment of each day. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteYou're so right about those cherish memories and quality time spent with your family. Before you know it a new stage of life with family and career emerges and you need to cherish what has taken place and take a deep breath and be ready to move forward in 2013.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your holiday break and know that 2013 will be great!
