The Most PERFECT weekend

This past week has been horrible! Full of self doubt, angry moms, and sore feet. But it feels like so much has changed in these recent weekend events. It seems almost like one of those wins that make all the practicing seem worth it. I know I sound sappy, but I’m absolutely loving this weekend. You see, this weekend marks the beginning of Christmas for me.
It all started with my aunt Jinny. She came to visit us. I wasn’t supposed to see her because I would be at the wrong house at the time, but I got to say here, and she’s staying some extra days too. I’ve gotten to spend time with her and It has been just SO great. She reminds me a lot of my mom. I’ve really enjoyed sitting around with her while we read.
Next came the tree. It’s 8 feet tall and smells wonderful. We got it yesterday in honor of Jinny staying. Once again I was supposed to be at the wrong house when we got it, and therefore wouldn’t be able to decorate it. But I made a deal with my brother so last night I got to stay here and decorate. The tree is just SO perfect. I spend so long last night just looking at it.
Finally, when I woke up this morning, it was snowing. The FIRST snow of the year. Everything is just amazingly magical. This weekend has been perfectly wonderful. It’s my first bit of Christmas celebration this year. I think all the magic in the air is helping us all. For me, my nightmares have stopped. I’ve had a nightmare every night for 15+ days, but I didn’t have one last night. This weekend is just about as good as it gets. The only thing that could make it better is possibly a 3-day weekend…
