In a Frenzy

December is the most hectic month of all. So many occasions to celebrate, so much food to eat but also too much stress in trying to fit in all the things that need to be done. Not that I'm complaining though. This is the time of year for reflection, for giving thanks and for planning for the coming year.

Today, my DS had his 4th birthday party in school. His real birthday is actually on the 22nd but we had to fastforward it just a bit to beat the Xmas break which starts on the 15th. I made it a point to involve my DS in all aspects of preparation. We had so much fun preparing for his party: from planning the menu, ordering the cake and preparing the loot bags.

It was really all worth it when I saw my DS' happy shining face! He was actually "shining" with happiness all throughout his party. I felt my heart melting as I watched how happy he was. Absolutely worth it.

Oh, and we were so busy that I didn't even bother to take a look at what arrived at 8:30 in the morning. Eeeekkk!!! Have to go a party first.
