December 25

December 25, 2008

In the early morning hours, I explored the RM House. Everything was so magical & festive. I hadn't felt a Christmas that magical since I was a kid.

I went to sleep & got up a few hours later, 

after the sun came up. 

Downstairs, Ethan admired 

the gingerbread houses.

I went on the patio. Lizards were everywhere.

After all, it IS the SWAMP...

Ethan & a volunteer 

playing games.

At Shands, Eric & I watched DVDs.

Papaw Earl gave him money

 to put in the Spiderman wallet

that I gave him.

The gator outside of Shands.

The Interfaith Chapel. 

I found myself drawn to this place. 

Eric's room.

He napped.

Then Eric, Ethan, Daddy, & I

all played together in Eric's room.

Then back to the RMH.

Room 15

My hand was slowly healing.
