Today was Annaliese’s first Christmas Eve and she was starting to feel even sicker. We stayed home during the day and go things ready for going to Aunt Linda’s later. Annaliese really was starting not to feel good. We got over to Aunt Linda’s and celebrated Christmas with the family. Annaliese tried her very best to be in the best spirits but you could tell she was getting weak. I was also starting to feel pretty crummy and I think I was trying to get whatever Annaliese had. We enjoyed eating and opening gifts with the family. Annaliese got some beautiful things from everyone. We brought her Christmas PJs to put on later before we went home. I had wanted us to go to Midnight Mass as we usually do (and just let Annaliese sleep) but since she was sick we went ahead and went home. Annaliese went on to bed and Mommy and Daddy stayed up to get work done. Finally Daddy said he was going to bed and Mommy stayed up for another 3 hours wrapping all of the gifts for Christmas. I was exhausted by the time I finally went to bed and was starting to feel sicker and sicker as the night went on. Daddy did manage to read, “Twas’ the Night Before Christmas” before Annaliese went to bed and I guess Santa came while we were all asleep because the stockings were full when we woke up the next day!
