Just in case you are having a hard time finding something to be happy about this holiday season, I thought I would share a message that Austin left on my voicemail this afternoon.
"I just finished my Christmas shopping. It was terrible. It took two hours. I bought everyone gifts. I'm kind of depressed because my bank account is now empty. I'm glad it doesn't have to happen for another year."
Clearly, Austin was already looking on the bright side, but his grandmother also pointed out that being able to complete all of your Christmas shopping in one two-hour trip was quite an accomplishment. Nanny then told Austin that since he was so quick, he could do her shopping next year, in addition his own. Maybe she will feel differently, though, after she sees what gifts the speedy shopper picked up today. Maybe she will feel the same. I for one am just keeping my fingers crossed that I will not be unwrapping any tents this year. But that is a whole different story/blog post.
Happy holidays. And to all the grinches out there, just remember, this doesn't have to happen for another year.
