Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year. And this year was no different. As a child you look forward to it for the gifts but as you grow older it takes on a totally different feel. The joy in sharing the true meaning of Christmas with your children, the pure look of happiness of your children's faces on Christmas morning, and then there is just the wonderful time spent with family and friends.
This year our holidays started out with the Christmas program at church. This was the first time I had participated in it since having the girls. But we had a lot of fun. Maybe a little more Derick...he got to dress up as a cop and live out one of his dreams.
And Christmas was no different. The girls... no WE ALL are so very blessed. We take for granted what we are given every year. Too many go without and we are blessed beyond belief.
Grace and Callee waited until the Monday before Christmas to decide they wanted bunkbeds. Callee's biggest wish was a BB gun. And Miss Hynlee still doesn't get the whole wish list just yet. But they got it all and then some.
The only damper was on Christmas Eve out of no where I started feeling very weak and tired. By Christmas I was almost miserable. For the next two weeks I was in the bed sick with the flu. But not only was I sick but Derick SHOT me with Callee's new gun. On accident I must add but shot me none the less. I was fine and I'm sure one day we will all laugh about it.
I hope you all had a Very Merry Christmas and A Wonderful New Year!!
