December 1st (and 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.):
"Mom, mom - can I stay up 'til midnight this New Year's Eve - can I, can I?"
"Sure, if you think you can."
"DEFINITELY, I can - I know how to keep myself awake. I'm a big girl now!"
"Me, too - if she stays up, I want to, too!"
"Sure, whatever."

"Mom, mom, mom - it's New Year's Eve - don't forget what you said, we get to stay up 'til midnight - right, right?"
"Yep."
"Hooray - we're staying up 'til midnight, staying up 'til midnight - maybe I'll just stay up ALL night, too - that would be fun, wouldn't it?"

Awww!!
I WAS up at midnight, but I was in bed reading. As usual, my big, new year's celebration was that I got OUT of bed and changed my calendar at 12:00. SO exciting!
Happy new year!

Poor babies. They didn't get to see the calendar police come by! Maybe next year. ;-)

We joined dreamland before your kids. But I am sure we didn't look so angelic. Oh yes, we were prepared -- I changed all the calendars yesterday!
Happy New Year.

How sweet! Ours are now at the age where they are the ones staying up past midnight and husband and I are struggling to stay awake after a long day. ;)
Wishing you and your family a wonderful New Year!
