christmas eve

I must say, this slowing down for the holidays? I am digging it. Today I ran 2 or 3 errands, all within about 2 miles of my house. Otherwise, I stayed in, built a fire, snuggled with the dog, did a smidge of fun design work and ate delicious home-made chicken soup... and more perogies.Tomorrow I am hoping for more of the same. But with presents and thank you cards and hot chocolate. I'm just relishing this holiday, I tell you. The boy here? I'm not sure he knows it's a holiday. And he's surely a little confused about all of his alone time. But he sure loves having my mother-in-law here. Snacks and snacks and snacks!
