Crumpled With Love
One morning it was there. The gift was simply there, appearing as though by magic. I looked closely and read "For Mom, From Mac, Do Not Open Before Cristmas" (as written, misspelled). The gift was wrapped by boy hands, crumpled with love...the most beautiful Christmas package I have ever seen.
Later that morning Mac said, "Mom, there's something special for you beneath the Christmas tree."
"When I came downstairs this morning I noticed a beautifully wrapped gift with my name on it." I replied.
"I found the wrapping paper in the attic and wrapped it all by myself." he said beaming with pride.
I just hugged and kissed the dickens out of him. There could be a dead rat in that package... I don't care. It is a gift of thoughtfulness and love from my son who is himself a precious gift.
The Christmas season in our home has been filled with many little moments I never want to forget...the gift of every moment...for every moment comes only once.
Would you like to join us in sharing the precious little moments which light your life this Holiday Season?

Later this morning my mom will be here, and we are going on a girl's day out wild Christmas shopping spree. Lunch and lattes will be involved. Maybe dinner and wine...who knows how long this could last...no boys in tow.
Sunday, I invite you to visit our Christmas Open House here at Slurping Life.
Remember, that midnight EST tonight is the deadline to enter A Vintage Christmas Book Giveaway.
