This holiday season I am looking forward to having time to spend with my family and friends and not having to rush somewhere. Now it is rush to work, rush to meetings, rush for deadlines, rush to shop, rush to parties. Yes lots of rushing! Once I finish work this Friday I am off until the New Year and cannot wait to relax at home. No alarm ringing at 6:00 in the morning and speeding my way through a shower and then getting E up to drop her off at the sitter’s house.

I will get to spend time with E and enjoy her new toys with her that Santa brings. We will be able to keep our jammies on and enjoy breakfast together. If we want we can keep them on all day. There are no dance, swimming or skating lessons to rush to. No need to rush to get groceries and run errands. I am going to enjoy those days off with my little one and family.

I hope everyone remembers to slow down during the holiday season and enjoy this time with your loved ones.
