He Makes a Mama Proud!

For anyone that knows me well, they know there are three things I absolutely adore... weddings, babies, and christmas. I can't get enough of any of them! In a perfect world there would be weddings all the time, babies galore in beautiful little satin bows and yummy chenile blankets, and christmas would be year round. Or at least at my house my husband would let me put up my christmas tree by my birthday- the first week of November. In the eight years we've been married he's only let me do that ONCE! And yet, he still denies that I conned him into it. Oh well. I know now that I have a child after his mother's heart. All of the boys have their own christmas tree that decorates their room each season. Owen has been begging for days to decorate his- so I finally got it down this morning and said maybe we could work on it this weekend. Well, tonight I found him in his room with the tree all decorated and with a sparkle in his eye. It almost brought a tear to my eye! No, seriously, it did! So the official Mieska christmas holiday has begun. Now it's 2 against 3 and really, Jude doesn't count yet because he can't talk. So I have faith that Owen and I will eventually win over Jere and Luke and my tree will be up by Sunday- Wish me luck!
