Christmas Eve

Friday, December 26, 2008

On Christmas Eve we had a singing appointment at 10pm. and my kids had been looking forward to going out singing with the big people so I took them regardless of the late hour. The people in the house we visited were so happy and really touched by the songs and the sample of Jesus' love they saw in everyone.
When we got home we all got ready for our Christmas dinner, the kids picked their clothes and everything, but then to my surprise when I went downstairs Arkos was asleep in the couch. My poor little man, he was so tired after all the singing and performing of the last few days.
So on with our dinner we went. Vera was quite tired as well but she sat with us and after finishing her food she went to sit on the couch and ended up falling asleep next to Arky.
They'd been asking me all day when we were going to open the presents and I kept telling them that we were going to do that after dinner. I guess their little bodies just didn't last that long and my attempts to wake them up for the opening of the presents were futile. But the happy ending of this story is that the next morning we got up and opened up the presents.


The kids singing and dancing to some of our friends.
