We got lucky.

| Christmas In The Park - December 20, 2021 |
Adelaide was born and is healthy, thriving. No one in our household caught COVID. As strange and frustrating as 2021 has been, we got very lucky.
In 2021 we saw family - all the grandparents, siblings, nieces, and nephews. We went to Disneyland. Everett is fully embracing kindergarten and Imogen is hitting her stride at preschool. Adelaide continues to thrive at home and at care.
And tonight? Tonight we get to have the most magical holiday night. At our house, Santa comes on Hogmanay (or as you might call it, New Year's Eve). In a normal year, we'd be in Michigan for most of the last two weeks of the year, including Christmas Day. It makes no sense for Santa to come then. We're home for December 31st though, and he's come that day since he's come at all.

While the newest variant surges (and takes with it our anxiety), we'll try to focus on our family, our household, our bubble, and leave the COVID worries for January.
