Packing Away CHRISTMAS...

Tonight after the kids went to sleep (Greg was gaming with the boys) I decided to pack away most of my Christmas items.  I'm a bit nervous come morning when Jacob realizes what I did, although the tree is still up with some ornaments.  He has been begging me to leave our stuff up... I think he thinks that Santa might come back if we leave it up! Then tonight he asked if we were going to take it down... so I thought I'd get a jump start on it packing away the more breakable things.  I'm afraid he might not be so happy with it when he wakes up! 

As I packed away our ornaments I... once again... started to feel really sad for Grace.  Everytime I get those darn ornaments out or put them away it makes me a little sad.  Jacob has OODLES of ornaments.  Grace has a total of 5.  From the first Christmas alone Jacob has 7!!! I'm not sure why it makes me feel so badly, as a matter of fact 4/5 of Grace's ornaments are from me! Where as Jacob has about 7 from me (and he has been around a bit longer).  Anyway as I did this I decided that one of my new years resolutions for this year is to be sure number 3 doesn't have this same problem! The sad part is Grace can never have made up from her first year! 

Ok... this emotional wreck is going back to cleaning and packing.
