Christmas Gifts (and Weaknesses)

After completing some early Christmas shopping, we contemplated the day’s remaining activities.  Make dinner, help the kids finish homework, clean the bathrooms, and wrapping the presents all made the list.

Having seen me volunteer to finish the bathrooms and coordinate homework completion, my lovely, charming, and talented wife volunteered to wrap the presents.  She said this in all seriousness.  Have I mentioned that my wife has many talents?  Too many to mention.  Well, wrapping gifts is not one of them.

In the mix of household talents, I received the full bank of gift wrapping skill.  Yep, mine look like they were prepared at the department store.  Poor Charlene’s?  Well she tries and let’s just hope that a gift bag and tissue paper are close at hand.

Have I mentioned that my wife has many talents?  That being said, I am okay wrapping my own gifts with my eyes closed, I really am.

Have I mentioned that my wife is beautiful, too?  And that if she ever reads this, I hope it made her smile and that she is still willing to buy me some gifts, even though I deserve an icy cold shoulder.  Teasing in the context of love is sort of okay, right?  Have I mentioned that I love her, too?

All that being said, I’ll wrap this year’s presents, no problem.
