if i let myself, i could get depressed that christmas is over.
the things i miss can be summed up like this
~the thrill of the season
~the music
the presents and decorations, and even the food are just fluff - kwim?
every morning when jackson wakes up, he turns on the living room tv, and selects something from dvr to watch for a little while while i get some more zzzz's (this morning it was 6:40)... so today, he chose "home alone" and when i did finally get up - i walked out into the living room - and "somewhere in my memory" (the theme song) was on... and i just about welled up with tears!
tell me i'm not the only one! ;)

how true - to both of you.
i just started reading "the five people you meet in heaven" and as he's being brought back in time to his childhood, the thought that keeps passing through my head is - now THAT would be heaven. :)
I, too, miss most of Christmas. It is a magical time of year!
Are you reading the book for our book club??
