Yesterday was The D’s 11th birthday. I decided that I would let him and Big E use the computer all that they wanted to for the day. Needless to say, they used it all day and I did not get a chance to blog.

With The D’s birthday behind us, I had hoped for a brief reprieve from the madness of excited kids, but no such luck. After all, Christmas is almost here!!! :: Kids running around waving their hands above their heads ::

Anyway, with all of this madness, I am not sure how blog posting will look.

If I can manage to get my exhausted body out of bed one of these mornings, I will be able to post then.

If I can occupy the kids with a pre-recorded Christmas special from the night before for a few sweet moments, I will be able to post then.

If, when the kids go to bed, I can still think straight after a day of wild, crazy, Christmas-anticipating children enough to put together some words into semi-intelligent sentences, I will post then.

Feel free to leave notes of encouragement in the comments, provided that you were able to steal a couple of moments away from your own brood and decided to stop by. I appreciate that. I truly know how precious those moments are.
