Eric the Great

So, there really is no particular reason for this post just that I wanted put out there to the universe that I have a great husband. He's not perfect but he's perfect for me. Here are some reasons I think he is nifty:
--He always seems to know when I need to be cheered up and he cheers me up.
--He always tells me the truth. Even when he "accidentally" orders something online.
--He is a great Dad. I mean who else would let their kid paint their back with acrylic paint?
--He worries about me when I'm late.
--He tells me I'm "hot."
--He doesn't care that I don't wear makeup.
--He puts up with my late-night cop-show obsession.
--He loves Christmas and picking out gifts.
--He's my best friend!!!!!
Cheesy, I know. But, I love him:)

Christmas

My long silence from the blog world has come to an end. I'm to tired to concoct complete sentences so I think I will make a list of observations concerning the Christmas season.
-Children have little sense of time. Unless Christmas is today or tomorrow they are unhappy.
-Children ages 4-6 can only look at Christmas Trees (even nicely decorated ones being sold for charity) for so long. Like may 30 minutes. That's really all they can handle.
-There is way too much sugar involved in this season.
-Kids have an amazing ability to give and are genuinely charitable when given the opportunity.
-It's actually a good thing if you husband orders his own Christmas present. It's easier that way.
-I really have no idea what I want for Christmas. A maid, a nanny, world peace I just can't decide.
-Christmas is magical.
-Real trees are better if you can.
-There is nothing funner to me than singing my child to sleep with Christmas songs. Until he doesn't fall asleep, then it's not so fun.
-I will forget to get a gift for someone and they will get me the best gift ever. This causes me stress.
-People who know that I eat GF and Sugar-Free will have a memory-lapse and bring me candy, chocolate, cookies etc. And they mean well....
-I love Christmas I really do. I love the magic, the suspense, the meaning of the season.
