I was sick all of Christmas and the 26th. Bummer. Everyone has really enjoyed their holiday though. We got lots of fun presents and had a lot of fun together.
I have one grievance that I wish to address. People that say that Christmas is no fun without little kids are people that don't have little kids in the house. Christmas with little kiddos is very exhausting, hectic, and frustrating. We had more crying and temper tantrums than ever before. It is way too much stimulation for one day. One minute they are laughing the next they are crying......for no real reason. My sister in law says it gets better once they are teenagers. That's gonna be a long ten years! Also, imagine getting lots of cool presents and not being able to play or look at them until 9 at night when your children go to bed, and even then you have two hours to look at your stuff because you have to go to work the next day.
That's what happens for parents on Christmas. Your children consume your Christmas. Not that I am complaining, I am just very, very grateful that Christmas is just once a year because Aaron and I are exhausted.
