A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Christmas Eve

Everything is done. Potatoes made and in the fridge ready to be reheated in the oven to make them nice and fluffy (I made them with cream cheese). Carrots and celery cut and on their special plate, dip made, almond croissants made for breakfast and donuts bought. Turkey thawing and stuffing onions cut. Since I discovered these wonderful turkey bags, I am washing and stuffing and baking the turkey tomorrow as it will take no time at all to cook a YUMMY moist turkey!

All my presents are wrapped thanks to Nic who watched Justin yesterday until I was done - I don't think I've ever NOT had to wrap presents Christmas Eve before. I do have to get better at hiding gifts. I do believe my littest has gotten my desire to peek. He is so fun this year and SOOOO excited for Christmas! He can't wait to see if Santa will bring him his transformers.
Alex also has the next 2 days off, how exciting!
