It is always hard when you are away from your mom and dad for the holidays. There is nothing like spending Christmas in Cleveland, being with my parents and sisters.
Lucky for me though, I have wonderful in-laws. Spending Christmas with them makes being away from "home" a lot easier. Rusty and Alice have always treated me like I was one of their
own, and I adore how much they LOVE Rebecca.
We had a wonderful Christmas with the Kimballs. John, Rebecca, and I spent the night at Rusty and Alice's house along with Amy, John's sister, her husband, Sid, and their two girls, Lucy and Caroline. It was one big sleepover.
Rebecca loves being at her Mimi and Papa's house, especially when her cousins are there, too.
We all went to bed early, or at least tried to go to sleep early. I think I had more trouble sleeping than any of the children. I was so excited about Santa coming. I could not wait to see what he would bring Rebecca and to see what her reaction would be. I could not fall asleep, and when I finally did, I kept waking up to look at the clock.
Fortunately, Rebecca woke up at 5:30 (surprise, surprise). Santa was very good to her. She got everything she never knew she wanted. Her favorite was the Cozy Coupe. She loves the one at the park, so Santa must have know how much she would like her own. He is so smart!
The girl loves to vacuum.
She wasn't too sure of her Elmo she got. He talks a lot. She really did not know what was going on, but she liked it. She also wanted to see what the big girls got. She was into everything .
