It's Christmas Time

I know that it has been awhile since my last post, but where in the world people find the time to do this everyday or every other day is beyond me.

I have to say that I have never been more excited about Christmas as I am this year. For Reily's first Christmas he was was only 3 weeks old. I was still recovering and adjusting to motherhood so I really don't remember being this excited. Now that Reily is a little older I am about to burst just waiting on Santa to come visit. Reily has brought more joy and love and happiness to my life than I know how to express.

I remember when I was a child my mother would walk around a store with a shirt or something that she wanted. Of course, before we left the store my sister and I would find something that we wanted as well. It never failed, my mother ALWAYS put back whatever she wanted to be able to buy the things that my sister and I had picked out. The older I got the more I noticed this. I never understood why she did this, until I had a child of my own. It won't bother me at all if I never got another pair of shoes. What is important to me now is knowing my little boy is happiest little boy in the whole world. Thank you, mom, for showing me and Leslie what true unconditional love is all about. I know that you would go to the ends of the earth for both me and Leslie, and I would do the same for Reily.

Until next time...
