Nicole, Me, Max and Noodles snuggle up on Christmas Eve.
Christmas Eve is here and it’s family time. After reading yesterday’s blog entry to my daughter she insists that we build a fire and read stories in front of it like we used to.
So after dinner and the customary opening of one gift on Christmas Eve, I proceed to read them a story in front of a blazing fire. The kids select a book about Greek mythology, a very popular subject with children their age after the phenomenal success of the Percy Jackson series, authored by Rick Riordan.
Bobby and Nicole must have read each of his books at least four times. No small feat given there are five in the series and each about three hundred pages or so.

The dogs hop on our laps to join in on the fun and it turns out to be a magical Christmas Eve. It’s moments like these that make me appreciate one of the most important things in life…family. It’s a time to appreciate what you have and dream about the future.
