christmas eve

sitting on the light blue and white kiddie rocking chair, trying to squeeze in my 36" size hips, in front of the computer. waiting... waiting...

he lies flat on the 3" thick foam mattress on the living room floor, sound asleep, snoring. fell asleep while waiting... waiting...

kids playing to their heart's content on the brand new 8" light blue salem mattress bought earlier. waiting... waiting...

there's never been a longer afternoon.

finally, the R-type bed we've all been wanting was purchased earlier today as a christmas gift to the family. to ourselves, for a good year that has passed. well, we can't say it's been a good time all year round. there've been problems here and there: misunderstandings, petty fights, money splurges, asthma attacks, fevers, coughs and colds for migo and julla... but we got through all of that and that's what's important. it's christmas eve and we're together and we're happy.

now all that's missing is that R-type bed that was supposed to be delivered at 3pm and now it's already 5:40!! so here we are... waiting... waiting...

when that thing arrives, we're off to midnight mass and christmas dinner at my mom & dad's house.

merry christmas everyone!! hope you're with family, or at least, the ones you love...
