There are certain events in my life I remember with amazing clarity. Memories, pictures in my mind, sights, sounds. I remember what was said, how it was said and the way I felt. The good. The bad. The exhilarating.
Tonight is going to be one of those events. Maybe it was the way Lily said, “I love you” when she went to bed, maybe it was finally freeing the packages from their hidding spot in the closet.
This is the best Christmas of my life. This has been the most fun and the most memorable. And it’s only just begun.
Lily went to be so bravely tonight. I think she was scared about Santa coming into her house. She was quite unsure about the whole thing, although she saw Santa at least three times and embraced him each time. However, when it came to something going on in her house with her asleep all the way upstairs, I think she was worried. I think she was actually scared. She’s thrilled about Christmas – as any 3 year old would be.
Well, we are done for the night. Time to make sure the camera batteries are charged and the camcorder is ready to go. 6am comes early and I’ve got cookies to eat and egg nog to polish off.
Good night everyone. Merry Christmas.
