I am going to go down to the hospital to join my sister and my niece in the waiting, which is bound to be long, as the process has not even started yet.
I have put up my tiny Charlie Brown tree. It is maybe 2 ft. high. I couldn't find any of my hanging ornaments, or the manger, or the star... they are all at the bottom of a storage closet that I just can't tackle. But I did what I could to add a little Christmas charm, lol. The little elf sitting in the tree was found on the street by my father many years ago.. it was tattered and torn, but he felt it deserved to be on a tree, so he picked it up and took it home.
Congratulations on the new baby soon to join your family!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks so much for visiting my blog (Something She Wrote) today. It's so nice to connect with new people. :)
There a few things more sad than discarded Christmas ornaments, especially elves. I'm glad you rescued one. And I'm glad an otherwise sad day will now be a day of joy. What a beautiful coincidence. Enjoy a milkshake and a cigarette on me.
ReplyDeletei like it when something happy can be remembered on the anniversary of something sad. it kind of balances the sad part.

Well, congratulations and a wonderful day to give birth! Best wishes!
ReplyDeleteI love the thought of your Dad rescuing the elf and him still bringing joy to you all these Christmases later. A magical tale indeed! Congratulations on the birth of your newphew. (I'm reading these posts topsy turvy!)
