So, the "gig" is up...


I'm talking about Josh and the current holiday season. Yep, we figured since he was now in YM's he should be fully informed. I think he was really just hanging on to please us anyway. We talked about informing him and I was kinda looking forward to it...you know, letting him be a little helper and all. So, yesterday was the day. Dad and Josh had some special time together. When Chad told me they'd had the talk, I didn't quite expect the feelings I had. I almost started to cry. Don't get me wrong, it was time and he basically knew anyway. But, somehow, it really made me sad. Like the end-of-childhood kind of sad. I guess with all the growing up he's been doing since he turned 12, I've been rather sentimental.

I remember telling Olivia - she was 10 and making so much noise about it, that I was afraid she would ruin it for M. She took it well, and promptly "forgot" it, and has enjoyed Santa as much as ever, lol. She even climbed out of bed last year, and insisted that we put out carrots for the reindeer. That's my girl!
