I spent part of this evening wrapping Christmas gifts. I don't have too many to wrap this year because I will only be seeing immediate family members. I will probably finish this part of my holiday preparations before the weekend. It's nice to know I'll be finished in good time but still I miss the drama of years gone by. When our children were young I always seemed to be wrapping gifts on Christmas Eve after the late service at church. I didn't usually get much sleep on Christmas Eve but it was worth it to watch the kids tear into those packages in the morning. There were some memorable gifts like the German Cabbage Patch doll and the science kit that we gave our son a week late because we forgot where we had hidden it. And of course there were Legos, lots and lots of Legos. Sweet memories.
