A Momma's Love

Dear Santa, This year for Christmas I would like the following.... Snow on the ground, Peace in the world, No one to be hungry, No one to be cold, Everyone to have jobs, and a full nights sleep..... If that is too much to ask, could I have a relaxing day with my family instead?  One full of happiness and love? Love, Me

Hard to believe it is December already!  Are you ready for Christmas?  Do you stress out about gettting Christmas just right?  In the past Christmas for me it has been about stress...get the ornaments out, get the baking done, buy the perfect presents, mail out the cards, and the list goes on.  All the things a good old fashioned Christmas is.  This year I have decided its going to be a little more relaxing around here.  Yes, the tree is up...but I did not go all out and decorate the whole house.  The presents are a little more simple.  Who knows it any baking will get done or not.  Instead of hustle and bustle I am looking for morning cups of coffee with time for reflection..preferably coffee with peppermint mocha creamer!  Listening to my holiday music, preferably without words, while dancing with the little ones in the morning.  Snuggly afternoons with my now 4 year old puppy and maybe my knitting.  And family filled eve...
