Thanksgiving was amazing. It was matts actual birthday this year on Christmas Day. We spent the first half with the Scoggins side, and the second half with the Siak side. It was crazy, awesome, and marked the end of busy-ness for us, as we came home to wait. Wait for our girl to make her appearance. The week before Christmas we put up the upstairs fake tree. Luke was so excited. Christmas is magical when you are four! The other kiddos loved it too. The week after thanksgiving we got the real tree for Downstairs.
This season is different that usual. Normally by now we have done everything Christmas-y you can. But at 35+ weeks pregnant we are taking this season slowly. And I am enjoying the peace that normally evades us in the rush to properly celebrate each year.
I am thankful for my people. The 3 (almost 4) that teach me about grace when my pregnancy hormones push me to an ugly place. This amazing husband of mine, who daily has to go out of his comfort zone to take over chores I usually handle. And for the gift of growing this last Siak, our sweet girl.
