December 26th or as most refer to it, the Day After Christmas is here. Kids are playing with their new toys, many parents, like myself are back at work and Santa is resting and relaxing after a busy Christmas night.
As I sit at the office and reflect on Christmas morning, I had a few things that have continued to pop into my head that really stood out.
- The boys really did a great job of sharing yesterday morning. They each got completely different sets of toys, which I am asked a lot if we have a duplicates. We have really tried to avoid that, but it does happen occasionally.
- The boys really asked Santa for only 1 toy each and the reactions when they got those were priceless.
- I got to witness Baby A and his cousin last night have a conversation about Santa and the toys that they received. I just wished that I had caught the whole conversation on video, because it was priceless.
- Christmas day for adults is and should really only be about the kids. Nothing else matters.
- Seeing Christmas through the eyes of your children, there is no greater gift.
As I sit at work this morning, the day after Christmas, it is quiet. A much different than yesterday morning, to say the least. The boys had an amazing day. They are blessed more than they will ever know.
I’m going to take a few days off from blogging and enjoy some time with my kids.
So from my family to yours, have a safe and happy holidays!
