Making our Holiday's Merry...



2005
It doesn't matter if we have money, or gifts, we have each other. 

Year after year, I stress over the holidays, and year after year, it always turns out ok.


Christmas 2005 - The girls big gifts- American Girl's dolls
 .

This year I am not going to let it get to me as much. I know my kids are all old enough now to understand our financial situation, and that just because 'so and so' might get the latest video game system, or game, or ipod,  they are OK with what they WILL receive.

It's a big challenge for me to not worry about things, but I have decided I am doing as much as I can to help our family, and worrying about what we can't do, helps no one. And it just makes me miserable. I choose to NOT be miserable :)

So- a few memories of past Christmas' preparing my heart for this one  - My kids sure have grown and changed ..
