Getting started a little early on my 25 Days ‘til Christmas list brought a few calm and precious moments today.
After dinner, our family crowded into the master bedroom. With all 5 of us snuggled into our queen-sized bed, we began our celebration of Christmas in November.
Surprisingly, we all fit. With our son in the middle, Paul held our oldest daughter on his side of the bed while I held the toddler on my side of the bed. We watched and giggled through Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
It was a wonder that their attention was captured for the full 20-minute or so program. Enjoying it so much, we plan to repeat this activity tomorrow with the airing of A Charlie Brown Christmas.
Though not expecting to watch our Christmas movie until December 7, I’m ahead of the plan. In using time wisely and snuggling with my family, we are celebrating Christmas in November. Seizing these moments!
Question: Are your holiday celebrations starting early?
Family snugglies! That’s the best! Cherish those moments 🙂 Our celebrations started early too. It’s great to get some extra days this year before Christmas due to the early Thanksgiving!
Agreed! I feel like I’m ahead of schedule rather than running from behind this year. It is so nice. Hope you are making special memories with your precious family as well, Shannon. 🙂
