~snow~All I can think about this Monday evening is how grateful and blessed I am. I don't think "blessings" are reserved for those chosen few who appear to make no mistakes but rather a matter of perspective. I am humbled and blessed by God's mercy in my life every time I take the time to open my eyes.    Apparently, the sequin ball I made was the prize possession of the night. My five year old, whom you can see across the way happily sipping her Coke, nonchalantly, but oh so seriously said, "Mom, when you're old and dead, can that be mine?"  I am humbled by the gratefulness I see coming from my kids. I could stop a t stockings and I think they would be happy. A candy necklace would suffice.  I think the "Pink Pencil" eraser is a close second!  CHRISTMAS MORNING SNOW!  I've waited 36 years and I guess I'll wait 36 more for such a miracle as snow on Christmas morning.  They ran out in their pajamas because they COULD NOT WAIT to get in it.      \   Thank the Lord for Daddies who play with their children.     Yes. I am a bad Mom who doesn't have mittens for her 10 month old child.  Abby recently said, "You know, I've decided I could kill somebody for Emma without thinking twice about it." My reply, "I KNOW!!!"    Abby keeps me young.    My Christmas present!  The boots. Not the scarf that actually belongs to my daughter.    Happy New Year! ~stacey | |
