The Holidays........


The Christmas season is finally upon us. For the first time in a long time I am very excited! I will have all my kids spouses and grandkids here! There have been a lot of changes this year. I lost someone very close to me, my husband joined the army and my ex's 2 kids went to live with him. I don't talk about what is going on in my life very often so many times there are things that people don't even know. My 2 stepkids leaving was one of the hardest things I have had to deal with. I miss them a lot but I know it was the best for everyone involved.

Now it is just me and my 3 youngest. It is crazy quite in the house now. I finally have the opportunity to spend quality time with the 3 that have sacrificed so much for the last 4 years. They deserve the world and I intend on giving it to them.

The tree is up~the presents are wrapped and as a family we will be strong this holiday season.
