It's hard to believe that Christmas is next week! It doesn't feel like it at all! Sometimes I wish I could still get excited about the magic of Christmas and Santa like when I was a little girl. Now it just feels like another passing day. It's just so hard for me to get into the holiday spirit some years. It comes and goes.
The only thing that has so far made the holiday exciting has been the children's excitement about Christmas. All week they have been buzzing with talk about Santa and presents. Today, one of the boys in my class brought me and my lead each a present. Mine was a beautiful scarf! It's striped with green, pink, red, golden yellow, white, and black. It's wonderfully bohemian looking! I love it! The other fun thing was that I got to read the Polar Express to the class. All the kids were so excited to hear the story (now for the second time in our class since I read it yesterday too).
I'm hoping the holiday spirit will reach me before Christmas comes and goes. Once we do have Pickle, it'll be fun to see the holidays spark with the magic again as Pickle feels the excitement for Santa and Christmas family fun! Although...I guess I should enjoy this Christmas. It may be our last Christmas as just the two of us.
God bless us, every Pickle!
