Christmas Eve night is one of my favorite nights. As soon as we got home from Mimi and Papoo's Reesi got right to work. Before I knew what was going on she had the reindeer food ready, Santa's plate of cookies out, Santa's milk (with ice to keep it cold), and her jammies inside out in hopes for a white Christmas. She was READY!
We set her clock and told her she couldn't get out of bed before 7:00. Promptly at 7:00 she's standing by my bed ready to open presents! We woke Elye up and were ready. She opened her stocking and then said, "My belly doesn't feel good." That was the start of it. She opened one more present and then left the rest under the tree to go lay in bed. Then she started throwing up. What a let down! We were all excited for Christmas morning and she couldn't even open her presents. Elye opened her presents while I was upstairs taking care of Reesi. Finally at about 11:00 she was better and opened the rest of her presents with Elye's help.
We had to move Christmas lunch from our house to Christmas dinner at Meemaw's house. Since we never eat at our house around Christmas we had nothing to eat for lunch so we got Hardee's, one of the only places open. It wasn't the best Christmas morning, but it did remind me how thankful I am for healthy children. Nothing is fun when your kid is sick:(
