Once upon a time, in a land not so far away, a pregnant princess was told she must stay in her castle
in bed, for 6 weeks.
Now, as much as this would be a wonderful respite for the now mom of 3 kids under 4; alas, she had no children – other than the one she was carrying.
Therefore, she became very bored…very quickly.
Therefore, she became very bored…very quickly.
She found solace in HGTV.
Her husband...
The prince, soon grew weary of all the painting and redecorating she was doing from herthrone bed and forbid her from partaking in any more HGTV entertainment.

She became very sad until one day, her mother, the Queen, told her of a very special event. Beginning July 25th, a home shopping channel began their Countdown to Christmas.
You see, Christmas season was the Princess’ absolute most favorite time of the year. She loved the sweaters, the soup, the shopping, the football (yes, even Princesses like football.), the happiness, the music...She loved it all. Most of all, she loved celebrating her Savior’s birth.
So on July 25th she tuned in. And fell in love with the magical elves selling their Christmas goodies and the dream-like sets sparkling in their Christmas best. And she did again on August 25th, and September 25th, and October 25th, and November 25th.
It became a tradition for the Princess to watch the Countdown to Christmas year after year, month after month. And although the Princess rarely, if ever, purchased anything, it (along with a Pandora Christmas station) put a Christmas Carol in her heart and a bounce in her step...even on a dreary September day.
And reminded her that Christmas wasn’t so far away…
And that she’d better get on the ball with her Christmas shopping…
And her Christmas budgeting…
And thus, the Princess and her Prince lived happily ever after.
And fully prepped for Christmas.
The End.
