I am a 35 yr old SAHM to my beautiful daughter Jessica. We have lived in Middle TN for 7 yrs now. I grew up in a Navy family & have lived everywhere from Japan to South Carolina. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 11 yrs. We are currently trying to adopt our second child from the US.

Well, we made it through the holidays

Hope everyone had a great Christmas, we certainly did! We had a birthday party for Jesus on Christmas day after we opened ALL the presents. Jess of course was thrilled w/all of her presents. Although last year was her first year to open & presents & things on her own, this year was her first year realizing there were more presents so of course she kept saying "next". LOL How do you teach them the real meaning of Christmas with so many presents?!? We had Christmas at our house on the 21st. She only gets 3 presents from us, like Jesus got from the 3 wisemen. So, she did get exposed to the real meaning at our house. LOL Well, it's a new year & it's time for new Year's resolutions. So, here are mine:

1. Lose weight
2. Learn to knit
3. Get my house somewhat organized!

I think I will keep a "journal" here for my weight loss so people can keep me accountable! LOL

Michelle, we were without power on Christmas day, but when the sons and their family came over, I was busy cooking our Christmas dinner on the grill. One of our sons remarked about how it was wonderful to get back to the real simpleness of Christmas and to the real meaning. Our children received a basket for my husband and I filled with goodies that I had canned from the previous summer and a picture where my husband and I had renewed our wedding vows. They were thrilled. You have the right idea.
