We took the kids to Big Bear for two days of Christmas vacation. It was the best time ever! We were not able to visit the snow last year because we had too many sick kids, so they were very excited about this chance to go. I usually feel a sense of peace when all goes well, like a sense of accomplishment when my people are happy and things turn out as planned. Does that make sense? But this time it was more than that, I had FUN!!! There was laughter, playing, getting along, singing, hugging, running... It was pure joy!
