I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas

The airwaves are full of the sounds of christmas music. There is a definite nip in the air. It must be time for the Holidays! I love to listen to carols and all the silly christmas songs. I tune the radio over as soon as I can. I'm sure the kids hate it but they are so gracious that they hardly complain. That is saying a lot since I sing along loudly and off-key. The tree has been up since before Thanksgiving (long story). We are busily shopping and stuffing and hiding from all the peeping little eyes we have around here. We truly don't put anything under our tree until the kids go to bed on Christmas eve. After years of fighting to keep the gifts wrapped, we decided it was easier that way. I must say that after years of buying cars and balls and bats and guns, I am having so much fun going down the girl aisles for a change! I know that everyone is busy this time of year so in case I don't get to blog again before, Merry Christmas To All And To All A Good Night!!
