Cooper is tucked in bed in his footed red and and white stripped Christmas Jammies waiting on Santa and Otey and I are headed to bed too. I have a Christmas Card to post, but that will have to happen tomorrow. My computer won’t connect at my parent’s house. Otey and I went to Church tonight and ran some other errands around town. It’s amazing how much being a parent changes your perspective at Christmas time. I have always been thankful for Otey and my great friends and family, but knowing that this is the only "first Christmas" that Cooper will ever have, and realizing that I can never get this moment back, just makes the reality of life a little clearer now. I guess he’s helping me to really slow down and cherish the moments. Okay… I think I’m going to apply for a job at Hallmark… off to bed so Santa doesn’t skip our house.
