I realize this journal is getting up late but when you have two kids and one of them is an infant, time seems to slip away from you. But yep, still not dead. Whoo and stuff. I hope everyone had an awesome holiday, ate lots of turkey/ham and consumed much pie. I know I certainly did.

Now, normally this would be the part of the journal where we'd go into how Christmas is commercialized and is ruining the spirit of holiday cheer, but I think I'm going to bypass that entirely. Instead I'm just going to say that whether you got lots of toys, presents or money, or whether you got nothing at all, what's important isn't the boxes, price tags and bags, but the spirit in which you give and receive. Even if all you can give is a holiday blessing and some good intentioned well wishes.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Now I go to nom this pumpkin pie some more. <3
