Well well, the 25th of December. For the first time in a while I woke before my alarm. I sat up hearing my Momma Love in the kitchen and smiled. But I laid back down and waited for her to tell me to get up. I knew she had a lot to do so I didn't want to crowd her. But when I heard her shout me I knew she was just as excited as I was to get into the living room and open all the presents!
So I did, but not before having a wake up smoke. But I kept finding myself stopping and watching my Mum as she opened some of hers. To see the smile on her face as she gets ANOTHER "A Christmas Carol" on Dvd (addiction don't know why?) or her favourite perfume or chocolates. I noticed that when I opened my presents she was watching to see my reaction. Even at 20 years old she just wanted me to be happy. And I'm guessing it's because I am older now that I want to watch and see if she is pleased herself. I know christmas isn't supposed to be about the presents. It is about family and being together, but I find that you know how much someone cares by the types of gifts they give you. My sister remembered a facebook status i'd posted about being impressed by a scrabble ring, so she got me one. My Mum noticed me checking out some books and quicky snatched one up. I didn't have much money to spend this christmas so I could only give little things. But my sister went all teary eyed when she opened the picture frame with a picture of us in it from one of our girly nights.
It has been a brilliant day, and hopefully a brilliant night, as I'm headed to my sisters for food, drinks and ohhhh the fun and games. Especially the drinks though.
So just remember that presents isn't what it's all about. Be happy that you are with people who you care about and who care about you.
Merry Christmas Cyber People! Get drunk be merry and raise those christmas spirits! <3
