Wow - it has been a FULL month!!!! Hope you've been following me on Instagram or Facebook for my December Daily posts. If not, here's a recap of the past couple days.
Celebrating Miss S 12th birthday on the 23rd, dinner and fun with my brother, his fiancé, her three girls and her parents on the 24th and a wonderful, quiet, mostly relaxing Christmas Day.
I have so much love in my hear today. For my family, my friends, for you. For phone calls and skyping with family near and far, for beautiful presents to open, for the bounty of cards received...but most of all for the birth of our Savior. Merry Merry Christmas!!!!
