In the corner of our apartment....stands a 'quick fix" decorated tree.....( a tree thats been our tradition...since its the same one we put up...every year...since...we decided to put up a tree!)
Below..it lies....a total of three presents..(LAME...I know) Hey dont blame me....my kids should be happy there are presents..under it..! Most days ....I feel like putting a bow on myself and sitting under the tree...Coz...thats what my kids want all day long...!
Santa's presents are just something to divert them away...from mommy...which means they are more a gift for me...than for my kids!
Anyways...we are Hindus....we dont really have to celebrate Christmas...but I like being a part of the the festivities in this part of the world....And well...I like the concept of Santa...I grew up always wondering why he never made a trip to my house...
So now that I am the parent....I make sure..Santa definitely comes to my house....:)
NORAD tracker says....Santa was here more than two hours ago....but I never saw him...but I also didnt leave cookies or hot cocoa for him...Me and H ( my partner in crime...dear husband) did drink hot chocolate....and now are wide awake....must be Santa's way of getting back at us :)
So anyhow....I am hoping amidst all this Christmas stuff....you have taken the time to think about the real spirit of Christmas..( yadda ..yadda...yadda...) which basically means...you hopefully didnt rear end into someone at the mall while getting those zillion presents...and rip someone's eyes out because they were reaching for the last item on sale...:)
Merry Christmas..and play nice..will ya?
Deeps love the bow idea...our children our blessed to have such fun mommas! :)
