Day 20

Time to put away the Christmas gnomes (this is for you, wife). We are a few days into January and while the holiday season was filled with the joy of our newborn, I feel like it’s time to jump into 2024. The stockings on the fireplace, including a new one for our daughter have served their purpose this year. The holiday blankets can be washed and stored. The faux poinsettias can be replaced with my prized olive branches and all the Christmas pillows swapped for our daily neutrals.

This season was really special bringing home our baby. It was certainly different than in years past with much fewer hours of sleep, more dirty diapers, and vomit-stained clothes. But it was worth it.

So long for now.
