Merry Christmas!

December 25, 2013

white christmas tree

I don’t remember ever being terribly jealous as a kid that my family didn’t celebrate Christmas. After all, we had our own Jewish traditions, plus we always did something special on December 25th to celebrate my parents’ anniversary. For many years, we went into New York City to eat and see a Broadway show (and sometimes make a detour to Rockefeller Center to check out the holiday decorations).

Still, I’ve always loved Christmas trees. Whether draped in white or multi-colored lights and adorned with matching or clashing ornaments, there’s always been something magical about twinkling Christmas trees.

If you’re unwrapping presents found underneath your Christmas tree, I wish you a very merry Christmas! And if you’re enjoying Chinese food and a movie, I hope you have a fun and relaxing day.

Finally, happy 37th anniversary to my mom and dad, the best Mimi and Ubie a grandkid could have!

Day 12 | No photos from today (well none worth sharing) because I sat in front of my laptop from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. working on deadline. My busy work day also meant that my kids didnt get very much of my attention. My husband kept them occupied for some of the day but I dont think they got any schoolwork done. Oh well we all deserve a lazy day every once in a while. I know I do! | So whats this photo? Just some of the amazing birthday presents I received from my friends this weekend!

Asa had a full-on temper tantrum because he didnt want to color his drawing of a rainbow and nearly lost his cool while practicing Typing Club. I wish I could do more educational activities with them like taking alphabet walks and tallying up different items around the house but Im totally overwhelmed with a huge deadline this week. In fact I had to keep working after the kids went to bed and now its nearlyC-Quarantine Day 8 | Ive felt anxious many days this past week but today was the first day I had the blues. Not sad about anything specific. Just ... sad. Cabin fever? Exhaustion? We decided to get out of the house to look at the cherry blossoms in Bethesda. The Kenwood neighborhood was quiet so we parked and walked down a side street keeping our distance from the few other people out and about.
