A Christmas First

Every Christmas I do the shopping for everyone and everything alone. This year Scott said he would help me out. Last Saturday was the big day. We not only have Christmas but Scott and Jason's birthdays are on December 9th, so we had some birthday shopping to do also. We were only shopping for a mere three hours and he commented on how much energy this kind of shopping takes. He was noticing that most of the men at the mall had a dazed look on their face and was proud that he had lasted three hours and was only minimally effected. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased that he realized how much work I put into getting the right presents for everyone on our list. It is a challenge that I love to meet every year to find just the right thing that will put a smile on everyone's face. I was overjoyed to have some company this year.
