Christmas Time is Coming! December 11, 2007
It’s Christmas time soon! This year, we’re not so prepared in the traditional sense of Christmas. We have yet to decorate, there’s no tree, the only presents we’ve bought are because we were out shopping for other things. This year we’re staying home due to our recent escapades around the world having left us with precious few PTO (vacation) days that we’d rather spend on Meike and Robert’s wedding next year. We’re looking forward to spending Christmas at home, though, so that’s not really a problem. But there’s another reason that we’ve yet to run our Christmas shopping spree.
Why is that? Because less than a week ago, we’ve brought home this bundle of joy:
We mostly only hear of Joy being a part of Christmas in songs and on our wrapping paper. But we’ve managed to bring in a whole lotta what Christmas is meant to be about all in one package. His name is Griffin, and he’s love, joy, peace, kindness and every other bit of goodness you’d find in no other Christmas decoration. With a bit of the Griffster, who needs a tree? :)
Coincidentally, we’re looking for a puppy-sitter next week so we can have a few hours to do some shopping and pick up a tree. :)
