We had alovely Christmas also. It is traditional in my family to open mostgifts Christmas eve, then 2-3 gifts and stockings in the morning....we usually have a large unwrappeg gift under the tree Christmas morning, but figured our new home was the best ever 'unwrapped' present we had! The children were happy with their gifts, their grandpa got them each a CD/stereo for theor romm, and Brooklyn got some nice jewelry, my son lots of games, a pillow back rest to play his game boy in comfort, bought my hubby slippers, some cologne, a watch a special foot shapoed bath fizzies to soak his tired aching feet after working and driving all week.....turned the santa hat upside down into a thong for an added bonus present for him!! LOL.......:LMAO He thinks I am crazy...but I think that's why he loves me, he says I am a true "outside the box" thinker.....used to the only thing he could say he loved about me was How I dressed! I was like that's all? Men, he has more to say now...LOL....Christmas was good, our family is blessed...and I am happy, tried to call and wish my moma happy holiday, she answers her phone by listening, won't say a word..so I just said we love you and happy holidays, your grandbabies missed you, hung up, looked over at the candle I have lit for her, and Brookie and I wished her healing hope and happiness. Found Brooklyn sobbong on the stairs layter, but had atalk with her, and she feels better now. Our sweet neighbors gave the kids a candle and each a $10 mall gift certificate...
Lilya...more prayers and love and light for your father, I am so sorry for all you are going through. I know you two are close.
Warm, loving Hugs!!! :redrose
