Get the prize

Ever have to endure something to get the prize at the end? 

I can think of one very specific thing: CHILDBIRTH. 

Hideous pain, horrible pushing, sweats, cussing, gnashing of teeth, but of course in the end it's all worth the prize. 

Well for one specific child of mine, he recently had to endure something painful to get the prize....

We had our awesome work party last week. We ate delicious food, we hung out, we laughed, we ate more delicious food, basically eating is what we did. Eating is what we always do.

But then the big guy showed up!

I was screaming and clapping, but I looked over and saw Pierce sink in his chair. Santa isn't exactly his cup o' tea, but presents are, so he knew what he had to do. ENDURE TO GET THE PRIZE.

I seriously couldn't quit laughing.

But he did it, and he survived.

Hope also made a trip up to his lap...

She was a little embarrassed by it all, but she enjoyed it.

Little sweetie.

I work with a great group of people.

Thankful for bosses that make things fun.

Merry Christmas from Warren East!
