“Question – ‘What do you want for Christmas?'”
December 25, 2024I’ve yet to meet a Mom who has not attempted to escape into the bathroom to have five minutes of peace from her family. According to the book, “Five Minutes’ Peace”, even non-human moms, elephants in this case, have tried this strategy. The storyline in this book describes a mommy who needs a little time out from her energetic children. However, her escape is thwarted by her three children who follow her into the bathroom and disrupt her peace.
“The Eve of Christmas”
December 24, 2020Christmas Eve has long been my favorite day of the year! The anticipation of Christmas day, memories of my brothers and parents attending a church service at midnight, and then returning home to gather around our fireplace while each of us opened one gift, ate some cookies, and drank hot chocolate (with marshmallows of course). Those Christmas Eves are now serene memories of more peaceful times!
It is probably safe to say that…
