Who was that fluffy man? Why it must have been Santa Claus!! We are in our new home and Santa managed to squeeze down the chimney to deliver presents to all the good girls and boys. It was a pretty marvelous feat for the guy, especially as our furniture had only been unloaded at the same house Christmas Eve morning!
The movers were set to arrive at 10AM on Saturday morning. Saturday morning, Mark and I woke to the sound of wind whipping around our house. After catching a quick report of the weather we called the movers and asked them if they could delay our move by one day. Fortunately, it was not a problem for them to come down Sunday morning to load. It worked out great! The girls were at church and by the time they came home, most of the furniture had been loaded. The girls had a picnic in the dining room as the table was packed away.
Monday, Christmas Eve day, the movers were at our new home bright and early. The girls worried many times to themselves and us while the movers were unloading our things, "Will Santa know that we have moved?" "Will Santa bring our presents to the new house?"
After the girls FINALLY went to bed, the jolly fat man came along and put a tree up and many presents under the tree. ZoraLin and Kendalan came up the stairs very soon after and saw the tree and presents. They were both excited, but were very willing to go back to bed when Mommy told them that Santa may "Come back and get the presents if he knows that there are little girls who are up!"
Christmas morning the girls came jumping into our bed yelling "Mommy, Daddy Santa has been here!" Santa saved the day! Now if he would just come back and help Mommy and Daddy put everything away in our new house!!
