A Childless Christmas

A Childless Christmas

Its 1pm here on the east coast.  My husband and dogs are taking a Christmas nap.  We already did breakfast and mimosas, and gifts.  The dogs got treats... we got gifts periodically from family over the past week and opened them as they came.  So no gifts today, no waking up early for Santa   We woke up and went to a friends to feed and let out their dog.  Then we came home and did cinnamon rolls out of a can and mimosas cause there is no one to impress with a big fancy breakfast.  We watched a Christmas movie and now its downtime before we go to work and go see a movie.   Rich and I didn't do presents this year, I think its because our spring vacation on a cruise is considered our gifts to each other.  Although I am reminded of a gift I got 2 years ago, a Tiffany necklace with a beautiful note saying "one more year closer to having a baby".   I cried.  No gifts this year, no tears, just a restful peaceful day... and one more year closer to having Christmas with our own child.
