Christmas Drama

Christmas is over, along with all but one of the 12 birthdays we have between November and January. Here is a recap of how everything went.
  • Was told by middle son that this Christmas did not seem like the "small Christmas" he expected. In fact, he could not understand why he received so much. This was great until his Father overheard and went off on me again!
  • My Darling Dad has been back and forth to the Dr. and hospital with sudden hypertension attacks. Please pray that they will get this under control and find the root cause.
  • My Brother Matt and Family decided to surprise us and visit a few days after Christmas. There is nothing like cooking for 17! Thank goodness for the giant motorhome that they drove here in. Wonderul to see them all - the kids are growing up so quickly!
  • Boys received their roles in Seussical on the Sunday after Christmas. Nick is Horton, Sam is JoJo, and Ben, yes Ben, may actually take a part as a Fish/Cadet (this is a HUGE step for him!)
  • I had a few friends and family members mad at me for one reason or another, further adding to the stress!
  • Oldest son had teen New Year's Party and was extremely rude and ungrateful. Still mad!
  • Seussical rehearsals started at Arlington Children's Theatre, thus the beginning of driving back and forth to Arlington three times a week - fun, fun, fun!
That pretty much sums up the last couple weeks. I will elaborate on some of these topics in future posts.

Hope you all had a lovely, peaceful Christmas and New Year
