I really wasn't sure if I wanted to do @decemberdaily again this year. What would I do on the days the kids weren't here? How would I document Christmas when the kids wouldn't even be with me in Christmas?

But then Blue pulled down last year's albums and sat laughing and remembering. He asked questions and talked with me. And I knew that I can't not do an album just because the story is hard this year.

It's been a hard year of forced changes and detours, but one thing is for certain. My story, our story, is meant to be kept and treasured and told. Our stories, good and bad, are what make us who we are and lead us to exactly where we are supposed to be.

It's gingerbread house day.

My most dreaded day because I get icing everywhere, break at least four pieces, and say lots of bad words.

But it's a tradition and I'm all up for traditions these days. Even if they aren't my favorites.

What's your easy to do and doesn't make a mess tradition for the holidays?

I need less this year.

So I left 90% of my Christmas decorations in their boxes. I went with fresh greenery instead of fake. I did one layer of ornaments instead of five. I simplified.

And I spent that extra time with my kids watching a dumb cartoon about a summer camp full of monsters.

So when I say I need less, I really mean I need more of the stuff that matters.

I am thankful for the early mornings that she wakes me up banging the dishes around in the kitchen. Because that means she's independent, self sufficient, and a pretty good egg sandwich maker.
I am thankful for the emergency trips to Lowe's with his long list of must haves for his new invention. Because that means he is creative, inventive, and never bored (or boring).
I am thankful for the cat who cries in the middle of the night. Because that means he's looking for me (like I'm ever hard to find) so he can curl into bed and warm my feet up.
I'm thankful for 3.5 hour long car drives. Because that means we are going back home to have a weekend with family.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I hope your week has been and will continue to be full of family and friends.
