It really was a merry Christmas - some gift highlights from the day included a Lego Hogwarts set that The Bear has been asking for for a very.long.time, an American Girl doll for The Princess that she has named Kimmie, an Imaginext castle that The Boy was really hoping for, a sock monkey toy for The Pooch which he has already stripped of all of it's stuffing - it is now a sock monkey rag but he loves it just the same, a beautiful Coach purse that I never in a million years thought anyone would get for me, and some cool headphones for My Wonderful Husband. While these gift highlights were all great, the real gift today was the time spent together, the good food we shared, and the love we all have for one another. The gifts are just icing on the cake. I think I have mentioned before that this year has been one full of quite a bit of heartache, stress, sickness, and sadness....but as this year winds down to a close and a new one approaches I continue to be thankful for the good that we have in our lives. We are so very lucky and I am so very grateful....and as always - Merry Christmas to all our family and friends far and near, those still with us and those not here... xoxoxo
