I love Christmas! I love that I come from a family that loves Christmas! I love that I married a man who loves Christmas! There is just something in the air this time of year that automatically makes me think of ornaments, cookies, Christmas carols. It is simply wonderful!!
Tyler and I mailed in our application to LDS Family Services last weekend. Now we can't wait to hear back from them! I think about it constantly, to the point where I have to consciously tell myself not to. After our application process is over, it could take quite a while until we are selected by a birth mother. I have the highest hopes that it won't take long, but for sanity's sake, I need to make sure not to obsess in the meantime.
Last week, one of Tyler's back molars broke, so today he went to the dentist. Turns out it was one of his wisdom teeth that had broken. He didn't even remember he still had any wisdom teeth! Apparently he had his bottom ones taken out before his mission, but his upper ones hadn't grown in yet. Well, they grew in, and today the dentist decided they needed to come out. Poor guy! It was totally unexpected, but I guess it's better this way, so he didn't have to time stress about it. Now he is crashed on the couch, completely drugged out.
Tomorrow evening I am going carolling with the Primary to an assisted living home. Should be really fun! I love my primary kids so much! I have had them for such a short time, I don't want to give them up at the New Year.
The Christmas decorations are up, Kenny and Dolly are playing in my stereo, now I need some cookies!
