Christmas 2007

We celebrated Christmas at Ruth & Philip’s today. We managed but sure missed dad. The kids went crazy with their presents and all the adults went crazy because the kids were running around and screaming loudly.

After everyone opened their presents, we each slowly found a warm corner and took nap. Napping was the best thing to do at a cold cloudy day….

Maria slept on the futon….
Mom slept in the kids’ tents….
Joseph took a corner in the living room….
Cindy slept in one of the guest room beds….
Ruth & Jeremiah napped together….
I slept by the windows with 2 pillows and 2 blankets….

Isaac didn’t nap – he played with his new toys.
Philip didn’t nap – he too played with his new toys.

We also got an itemized hospital bill for my father’s hospital stay. The grand total was around $210,000 for the 9-days/8-nights stay at the hospital. Thank God that dad was insured under mom’s medical coverage; we would have to sell our house to pay for his medical bill if he weren’t covered. It’s so expensive.
