Christmas Update

We had a wonderful Christmas. The girls were very happy with what Santa brought them. Jessie was glad to get her skateboard and the calf head that she will practice roping. Lanee loved the CD player and her Taylor Swift CD, we have heard it enough to know which song comes next. They got some cool clothes from Nonna, Pops and Mamaw Murphy. They love getting new clothes. Jason's parents got Lanee the Big Baby Alive, we have used all of the diapers, this was on her list this year. Jessie wanted one of the large Breyer horses for her collection and a saddle for it. She got those things and I loved watching her saddle up her horse, she was so happy. I have always hoped my girls would be grateful for what they got and not be selfish and they never cease to amaze me. They still have not mentioned the things off of their list that didn't get. We went to Christmas Eve Service with my parents and we let them take turns reading the Candy Cane Story ( a tradition at my mom's) before they got ready for bed. They are at the age that they really need to look beyond Santa into the real reason. I still amazes me that Mary was so strong. After having your own kids, you can't imagine not having the gifted doctors and nurses to take care of you. God is amazing!
