Daughters
Daughters are a funny breed aren’t they. I remember my relationship with my mother as being a bit up and down, depending on my age.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Hope you all had a grand Christmas. I had my daughter, granddaughter and grandson #2 home for a week during Christmas and then the weekend after Christmas I had 2 of my boys home. As nice as it is to have everyone home at once, it is also nice to break it up and have the holidays last a bit longer.

Christmas Goodies
Christmas cookies are a must have in our family. We each have our favorite which sometimes changes over the years, but mostly not. There are certain cookies that just have to get done and if it’s a busy year and I am running short on time to bake, those may be the only ones that get done.

From Boys to Men
Today is the 32nd birthday of by first born son. I can’t believe how fast time has gone. I distinctly remember being in the delivery room having him and how unbelievable it was to see and hold this precious creation that I made and carried inside of me for almost 10 months (he was 2 weeks late). He was perfect and beautiful.
