Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells!

Emma has been singing Jingle Bells for the past 2 weeks.  It is so adorable.  She has really enjoyed Christmas.  She asked me a few days after Christmas “Is Santa coming to town?”  I tried to explain that he would come again next year but of course she doesn’t understand what that means.  She did OK when we took the Christmas tree down.  I was afraid she would have a fit on us.  We had a good Christmas other than all passing around a virus.  I didn’t get to make the Hutchins (Stuart’s Mom’s) family gathering because Sam was sick.  Stuart and Emma went.  I hated to miss it because it is always so much fun – singing Christmas Carols and all the kids playing.  Oh well, there’s always next year (or this year).  Stuart and I enjoyed being off with them for a whole week.  It was fun to get to hang out and play with them.  We hated to come back to work this week but we had to.  We are looking forward to a fun weekend with his family for his cousin Ricky’s wedding.  Birmingham may never be the same.
