We have a very short week this week, but it should be a fun-filled one.

Monday we will be making one more tree ornament. It will involve paint and glitter (woohoo!).

Tuesday morning will be our Christmas party. Nothing fancy...just a few games and special activities. We will have a simple but special lunch, followed by dessert (woohoo again....we never get dessert at Bev's house!).

It is a tradition at Bev's house to watch the Charlie Brown Christmas DVD on party day. I have a meeting here at 2:30 or so with someone from Child Care Resource and Referral, so to keep the kids occupied, they will get to watch the DVD at that time.

Daycare will be closed Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday so that I may enjoy the holiday with my family. December 26 falls under my Tueday/Thursday holiday rule this year, but I normally take that day off anyway. I do it for my kids. If I don't, we have to start cleaning up the house on Christmas Day for daycare the next day. Plus, it gives them an extra day to have me and the house to themselves.

Have a very Merry Christmas!
