It’s Christmas Eve! The boys are in bed and Santa will soon stuff the stockings and put lots of presents under the tree. Max was anxious to get to bed– he knew that Santa wouldn’t come unless they were asleep.

Unfortunately, we are all sick. The boys both have ear and eye infections, and Max has bronchitis. Josh and I have some sort of upper respiratory crud. None of us feel well at all– such a shame that we had to do this NOW. I’m hoping Max & Khai will be doing better tomorrow so they’ll have good energy and stamina. It’s going to be an exciting day, even though we’re keeping things pretty low-key.

I’ve already started preparing the food for tomorrow– we’re having quite a spread. It will only be the four of us and possibly Aunt Jenn, but I promised Max a feast!

In other news, I’ve decided if I ever go back to school, I want to study astrophysics. I don’t know exactly what I’d do with that career-wise, but I’m sure I could figure something out.

Off to finish up a few kitchen tasks and then play Santa! Then I get to fall into bed and pray that I will feel better in the morning.

Merry Christmas!
