Today is Christmas Eve and I am finally done. I had the idea that getting things ready for Christmas this year would be so easy since I wasn't 'working' and had 'time' on my hands. I had dreams of having my Christmas letter off well before Christmas and all my gifts purchased and wrapped weeks in advance. Well....it didn't happen! But, I did get my Christmas letter/card out yesterday, so I did better than years in the past! (most years the Christmas cards end up being New Year's cards :) ) I have a feeling that the reason I wasn't as 'on top of things' like I had planned is taking his morning nap right now! Even though Owen has made getting things done a bit trickier....he has made it SO much sweeter!
The other night we were attending a holiday open house at our pastor's home. Our friend and worship leader got out his guitar and began leading us in a few Christmas carols. As we began singing song after familiar song I noticed a voice that was very off-key. I first looked over at Mike (he is not always on-key....and he knows it!). But crazy enough it wasn't him. As I continued to look around and search for the noise I realized that it was my sweet Owen, who was sitting on the floor, 'singing' with us. He had his mouth wide open and his sweet eyes looking up at everyone else singing. He looked quite 'angelic'! :) Just melted my heart. I will remember that moment forever! Let's just hope he learns to put it in key or his mother is going to go crazy! :)
Also-Happy 8 months Owen.....wow....time sure flies when you are having fun! :)
