Christmas

Believe it or not I did not take pictures. The kids got fun gifts and enjoyed the day. Nathan decided to have his own tradition and bring the gifts down stairs last night before Santa could come. Frankly - it pissed me off. I hate that he gets to determine all the traditions and such and that I have no say.

The night before he put on some program. It was sweet, but I was not into it until I got over the fact that he brought the gifts down the night before while the kids were still awake. I did love how we all sang together and then played a game together. They all opened their PJ. package and seemed to like them. That was good.

Christmas came and the kids had fun opening the gifts and playing with them. Everyone in the family had a gift. I had 1 gift and that was from my sister in law. A su do ki game. Nothing from Nathan - not even a card. That hurt more than anything. Oh well. He knows he hurt my feelings and I know he never intended to. You would just think that after 13+ years marriage that he would KNOW that some things are special. He claims that his employees and secretaries helped him in the years when he was in business. I say it is just common courtesy to be thoughtful. It is not hard to write a letter. I don't ask for anything... just a sweet letter would suffice. Anyway, the holiday is over. I am trying to be a nice wife. Just focusing on cleaning and playing with the kids. :)

So that is how our days are going.
