The holidays are fast approaching, but this year I can't get in the mood. My children are 16 and 24 and couldn't really care a fig if the house was decorated. My husband hates Christmas so if the house isn't decorated he doesn't care either. So what's a poor girl to do. Just put some little things out to let us know that's it's the Christmas season.
Last night I was watching a movie, Fred Claus with Vince Vaughan, see if it would inspire me to get out some more decorations, try to get into the festive mood, which I have to say I usually am, I start playing christmas music in November. Fred Claus not the greatest movie that was ever made but charming enough, while watching the movie my husband asked me if I believed in Santa Claus as a kid, yes of course I did, who didn't, he didn't, never did, he says, I can't believe him, refuse to believe that he didn't believe in the jolly big man in the red suit. We asked our son if he believed in Santa, yes he did, our daughter who is 24, I vividly remember her believing in Santa, who doesn't believe in Santa, I mean of course I know it all has to do with Christianity, other religions celebrate other things. Hey, I get that, and Santa is Saint Nicholas, and doesn't go around in a sleigh with eight tiny reindeer. I get it all. I wish that I still believed. Then just maybe I can get into the christmas spirit this year.
