Two children that I love today fell off the back of couches. One was my daughter who fell off the pony-wall actually which is right behind the back of our couch.  She fell on her head and thankfully was not hurt too bad, just cried for a little while as I monitored her for a concussion. The other was my four year old niece who bruised her fingers pretty bad, but thankfully they were not broken. This got me thinking if there is a higher incidence of accidents around the holidays. You know with parents being preoccupied with buying and wrapping gifts and making food for family get togethers.  Then it got me thinking of all the people I have heard of recently who have had tragic events in their families.  It seems like there are more this year than usuall.  For those people please know that I am thinking about you today and throughout this holiday season and if I could I would take your pain away.

On a lighter note…

I was listening to “Talk of the Nation” this morning on NPR and they had a wonderful Christmas addition where people made up their own versions of “‘Twas the Night before Christmas”. I am a very sarcastic and tongue in cheek person myself so of course I loved this. I hope you enjoy it too!
‘Twas the Night Before Christmas 2.0

Merry Christmas to all and to all a safe night!
