Dear Santa...

You're not a miracle worker because you too, were created by God but I do believe that you are a wish granter...so I have a few wishes that I'd like granted.

1) Please give my girls a wonderful Christmas to remember for years to come. They are so deserving of feeling loved, treasured and valued on Christmas day and every day.

2) I'm dreaming not of a white Christmas but of a green one...all I'm asking for is for it to rain money. You got it...money. It seems like that would be the tops on so many people's Christmas wish list. Even if it rains for only 5 minutes, that would be okay too, Santa.

3) This is a next to impossible request but you can make it happen. Please freeze up every utility company's computer and every bill collector's phone list so that we can have a pleasant relaxful Christmas without the worries of bills coming due. Better yet, can you just allow the slate to be wiped clean completely so we can all start over again at the beginning of the new year?

4) Last but not least, Santa...I am asking for JOY. Not a little but a whole lot! I'm feeling a bit like the Grinch at the moment so I could use an extra dose.

Thanks Santa!

PS--Cookies will be waiting for you.

Do you think if we all wished for the same it is more likely to happen?

I could do with some green rain too!

A clean slate would be the awesomest (that's a word right?) gift ever. I would not ask for too much else if I got that.

We all feel like a grinch sometimes! The season can get to us in good and bad ways but for the most part we all come around and that man with the rosy cheeks and big fat belly puts a smile on all our faces!

Only I....

Only I --- could cut my tongue eating a graham cracker. Only I --- could be the designated pillow for the kitty. Only I --- could cry from hearing O Come All Ye Faithful. Only I --- could eat seaweed for breakfast and convince myself that it is the yummiest snack there is. (Even better than Reeses Puffs Cereal) . Only I --- could develop an allergy to fish after 49 years. Only I --- could have the joy of teaching a classroom of preschool kids in church and hearing them pray. Only I --- could have an epic fail day in the kitchen while making caramel apples. Note to self --lose the recipe for reverse caramel apples. Only I --- would get the same guy twice on the phone wanting to commit suicide - AGAIN. This time, though, he was threatening to take out a few people with him. Scary but true. Only I --- could misunderstand someone that is telling me that they are "packing". She said, "I'm still living here but I'm packing." My re...

My Bucket List

My twin sis and I have bucket lists. The funny thing is that they aren't literally on paper. They are in our heads. For instance, my Nay Nay called me and said, "You won 't believe what I did!  I got big girl shoes…for my bucket list." "Really? Big girl shoes?" I asked. I knew exactly what she meant. When we were born, and back in the day when braces could or should be recommended for feet that in-toed, we weren't given that joy. As a result, walking in high heels can often be a challenge. My Nay Nay decided that she was going to cross off one thing on that bucket list and found a deal of 10 pairs of heels. (Not one but 10. She went for the gusto.) Each day, she practiced walking in her big girl shoes until the moment finally came and she ROCKED those heels! Together we have decided that we WILL cross off stuff on our growing bucket lists. Some of those things are on both of our lists while others are our very own "personal" bucket lists...
