Almost Christmas

Yay!  It's the final days until Christmas.  Mariah will be home today!  Lots to do yet to be ready...

Movie Time

"Eat Pray Love"  Just what I needed today!  

Being Mom

This is just part of my emotional status at Christmastime...I don't really know how to rephrase it, so I'll just copy and paste an email I just sent to my mom.  I'm sure lots of people can relate...

Hi Mama!

I just wanted to tell you I love you and thanks for being my mom!  I've spent the day today on my own, working on Christmas stuff.  I got my Christmas cards ordered, I'm listening to Christmas music, it smells good, been wrapping presents.  This season makes me quite reminiscent and emotional, you know! :)  So...I was wrapping presents for the kids, and I got some ideas of other things I want to do for them for Christmas, and thinking about how much I just want them to have everything their heart's desire. Physically and emotionally.  And then I realized that these are all the same emotions I'm sure you go through as well.  It's easy for me to get caught up in being the "mom", but you're a mom too.  And you're my mom.  And I thank you!!

I love you!

Cindy

Thinking

I don't know if many people know this about me, but when the holiday season comes around I get very sentimental and nostalgic.  Probably not unlike many others, but I'm really getting the urge to start getting some thoughts written down.


I'm gonna do a Christmas Blog letter this year, rather than mailing it out. Details will be coming soon.  I'm also going to start blogging again on a regular basis.  I just have so many ideas and thoughts that I get overwhelmed by it all.  Maybe if I start blogging all this I can process it more easily.


Stay tuned....
