Tomorrow Is Christmas

Tomorrow is Christmas. Can you believe it? The air is buzzing with the familiar magic of the season—twinkling lights, the smell of freshly baked cookies, and the warmth of loved ones gathering close. But as I sit here tonight, in the quiet before the festivities, I can’t help but reflect on the whirlwind that was this year.

2024 was… a lot.

It was a year filled with milestones, both personal and professional. At work, I pushed myself harder than ever—projects launched, challenges tackled, goals achieved. Each moment was a testament to determination and resilience, but let’s be real: it wasn’t easy. Balancing ambition with motherhood is a delicate dance, one that often left me teetering on the edge of exhaustion.

Then, of course, there were the moments that mattered most—the ones at home. Family dinners filled with laughter, bedtime stories with my little one, and spontaneous dance parties in the living room reminded me why I do it all. These were the moments that filled my heart, even on the busiest of days.

And now, as Christmas Eve gives way to Christmas Day, it’s time to rest. To pause. To let the to-do lists fade into the background and be fully present in the here and now.

Tomorrow isn’t just a holiday; it’s a reminder to slow down and soak in the love and joy that surround us. It’s a chance to celebrate not only the season but also the journey that brought us here—every late-night work session, every scraped knee kissed better, every hug that said, “We’ve got this.”

So tonight, as the world readies itself for Christmas morning, I encourage you to do the same. Light a candle, sip some cocoa, and take a deep breath. Reflect on the year that’s passed, with all its ups and downs, and let yourself feel gratitude for the incredible resilience you’ve shown.

And tomorrow? Let’s put the work aside. Let’s turn off the notifications, forget about the dishes for a while, and just be. Whether you’re celebrating with family, friends, or even by yourself, let this Christmas be a day of rest, joy, and peace.

From my family to yours, Merry Christmas! May it be filled with love, laughter, and the kind of moments that warm your soul.

With love,
Lexa
