December

December is here and Christmas is near. Just less than two weeks till Christmas Day!!! I am very excited to see my family on Christmas Eve. My mom, abuelita, brother and his fiance will be coming to my house that day. And my abuelita is going to show me how to make her albondigas soup. It is seriously the BEST soup! Just thinking about us all being together brings back memories of childhood of when the family would all get together on Christmas Eve. We would always eat a yummy Christmas dinner and wait till midnight to open presents. It was always so much fun to be around all my tias and tios and primos. All us kids would play together till midnight. I remember how long the wait felt. I remember just counting down the days till Christmas Day felt like forever. Funny how once you become an adult time just flies by. And now I wish the days would just slow down so I can enjoy every moment with Nate. Anywho, I am very excited to celebrate this Christmas with him. I feel like he will understand so much more this year. It'll be so much fun seeing him open his presents and see his new toys. And also just having him surrounded by family. I want him to grow up and think back on his childhood memories of Christmas with so much joy as I do of mine. That would make me sooo happy.
