It's a wrap

It's 9:20pm, Christmas day. I think it's fair to say that everyone is pretty content. The ages of the kids in the house are 12, 10, 7, 4.5, 4.5 and 1. They awoke at 4:15 but managed to stay in bed until 6:30. They knew to not come knocking on any adult door until 7am.

After stockings, pecan rolls, presents, snowmen, rouladin (otherwise known as German Christmas dinner crack), bionicles, Sorry, card games, hot tubbing, 2 New York Times crossword puzzles, and endless forms of chocolate and sugar, silence has descended. The kids are all passed out. The adults are all either reading, computing or nodding off (or a combination of the latter).

In summary, it was completely lovely. I am so blessed and so fortunate to have the family and life that I have. I hope each person who reads this litany of Ansari wackiness is similarly blessed, content and well. Merry Christmas to each of you.
