Noël or the longest night of the year...

Merry Christmas!
Too tired to write more than this because I didn't get to sleep til nearly 5 am on Christmas eve. I think I was channeling all those moms who stay up until the crack of dawn frantically wrapping presents in their kitchens... Here is a photo of the tree in the dark taken before creeping into bed. I always think it's such a pity that no one but me sees the tree with all the presents under it in the wee hours of the morning, and I wish this photo could do it justice.
