Christmas Robins

 

This year we got our Christmas snow last week~

the kids were sure happy, especially SJ, he loves the snow.

It was pretty, but today it was a warm 54 degrees-

the robins even showed up to enjoy the weather!

 

 

They were having a grand time out at the birdbath.

Much better than I was having in the house.

 

Our family Christmas is tomorrow, so there was a lot

of food to prepare for our brunch and for snacks later.

I had to do all the laundry today so we would have

clothes to wear this week.  Plus, this morning, three

of the kids had some sort of sickness issue going on.

And to top it all off, I was worried about my Grandpa

all day- he passed out this morning for 20 minutes

but they haven't figured out why.  He's now in the

hospital again.  He's had a rough year, this is his

third time in the hospital.  They think he will come

home tomorrow though.  All that to say, I'm not

feeling just real Christmasy right now.  Sometimes

the holidays are just a bunch of work. 

 

So, I was glad God sent the robins to cheer me up

for a little while this afternoon.  It's good to take

some time to observe the little things now and then!

 

Well, I need to go fold more laundry...

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
