Merry Christmas to All...

Christmas 2008 will be here tomorrow...finally! I love this time of year, although I hate the insanity of the shopping! Thank God I can do most of it online!

Its been a terribly long year, and the last month or so has been even longer. I guess each day that passes as we wait for "the call" makes it seem like an eternity. Its really not and I need to remember to be grateful for each day.

My "baby" is home, my mom and brother are both healthy, although we're missing Daddy very much. Monday was his birthday and that day is particularly difficult for me. We always enjoyed spending our birthdays together...it's weird not to have any other December babies to share it with! Jay is doing as well as can be expected. His brother is recovering from open heart surgery and doing well. His other siblings seem to be doing well.

I hope for all of my family and friends the warmest of holidays and the merriest Christmas ever. I hope you all get everything you want, but mostly, I hope you're surrounded by family and friends that love you as much as I do!

Merry Christmas to All!

Love,
Karen
