So my blog readers I must let you all in on a little bit of something. I get to do Christmas the way I want too! Now as you all are aware the Frog Prince was well Scrooge on this very sweet and much loved holiday. (Shocker! Not!) Yes folks he could take the sweet love and sounds of this wonderful holiday and destroy them.
Now as apart of my new life for me and the children, I have decided that we are going to do all that this holiday has to offer! From the fun activities offered here in town, to the silly little desires that we have for shopping out of town! Yes we are going to do what we want! We began this by buying the decorations that we wanted for our tree, and the lights that we wanted. Ya I know we are a regular gang of delinquents! From the bright colors that we picked, to the fact that we wanted pink lights on our tree we are rocking it!
You see we have so so very much to be thankful for and so much that we are looking forward too in our lives. We are excited for the beginning of new traditions, as well as the old traditions that we have for this holiday. Its like we are all celebrating Christmas for the first time! My children are excited at the idea that they will for the first time ever be able to enjoy this holiday season the way their friends have.
Now it is sad to me that due to the Frog Prince these darling lil ones have been pushed to the point of never experiencing even simple town events. But this year we are doing it! We kicked the season off with participating in the Christmas Stroll here in our lil town. We enjoyed cocoa,(coffee for my sanity) chili, cookies, candy canes, smores and more cookies! And guess what? They loved every minute of it! They enjoyed not having to worry about not being able to meet with friends on the stroll, they enjoyed that they were able to participate with the going on's of the stroll and felt great by getting to feel apart of a new area of this holiday.
I was happy just be able to go. I loved just being able to say yes when they asked, and I enjoyed not worrying about having to ask permission! Yes ladies, I was able to enjoy myself and not get any type of punishment!
So in this holiday season I feel like for the first time in years we are able to really enjoy our Christmas , and be apart of the regular family bonding events that we have missed out on.
