A Gift Well Received

A few posts ago, everyone learned of my son's great need for a trash can. What I didn't know was that a few days after he told me about this need for his own trash can, he was also telling other people in the family about his needs. His dear Aunt Jamie bought him a "trash can with a button and a lid" for Christmas. I think the picture tells the story. On the way home, he told me, "Mom, I really needed that trash can." Why my son thinks he needs a trash can I have no idea, but he sure is thrilled when he finds something to put in it. Thanks, Aunt Jamie.

Christmas Celebration #1

On Saturday my side of the family had our Christmas celebration. We enjoyed a good meal, time to visit with one another, the reading of Christ's birth, and of course a gift exchange. A good time was had by all ;)

7 Wonderful Years

This week we celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. We went out to dinner and a movie while the kiddos stayed with their grandparents. It was a fabulous evening. I was once again reminded that I am married to the most thoughtful and caring man on the planet. I am very thankful for the husband God gave me, and I look forward to spending the rest of my days with him.

BA: "Mom, I need something."

Crissy: "What do you need?"

BA: "I need my own trash can."

Crissy: "Your own trash can?"

BA: "Yes, I need one. I don't have one of my own. I want one with the button to make the lid come up when you press it. I can put it in my room."

At BA's dental cleaning this week, the hygienist asked him if he missed school to come to his appointment. He replied, "No, I don't go to school- just Sunday School...and I go to the dentist."
