BRING IT ON

Im not trying to brag ,or get sympathy, I just think this is worthy to talk about! My December's for the last 28 years have gone something like this.... John and I were married Dec. 20 1979 our anniversary! John's birthday Dec. 23rd. Lets have a beautiful baby girl named Nicole Marie on Dec. 17. I was due on the 23rd but the Doc said he would induce on the 17th, I took him up on the offer. The hardest birth I have ever had, no pain killers for me,( I know Im dumb!) I said, "I will have a baby on Christmas day before I ever do that again!" I didnt know I meant it... JINGLE BELLS , Alexis Lizabeth born Dec. 25th. My son in law Mike, born Dec 16th, his beautiful mother gets the credit for her fine work!! I have never wanted my loved one's to feel jipped out on life, I have tried my best to make it special , SO DONT TAKE ME ON A TALK SHOW BECAUSE YOUR SCARRED!!! All kidding aside, to all my kids with December Birthdays Thankyou for making my December's full of love. Im glad your mine, I wouldnt have it any other way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART!!! LOve infinity xoxo

Decembers birthdays and anniversaries just make the holidays stretch out even more. It makes the whole month seem like a party!!! I'll bet no one in your family ever feels ripped off. I'm sure you make each day special just by being you.

You are so amazing. I love you and so proud to be part of a family like ours. As I was reading some of your posts, I was so impressed with the sweet and generous way you pour out love to everyone you come in contact with. Remember how our girls were so frightened of Danny at the old Bashas' where we would get our pepsi with the crushed ice??? I love you, cousin!

Hey Lori! I am feeling much better, thanks for asking. Dan wishes I was not moody all the time and I just try and tell him that its a pregnancy thing but he still doesn't get it. I am only starting to show a little bit, you can't even really tell. I look in the mirror sideways everyday to try and see. I hope you are doing good! It sounds like you had a fun Christmas with your family, It must have been hard without Mandi there. It is hard when even one person is missing. Eliza and I are just grateful to have one other person to have so its kind of opposite for us. I guess it just makes you that much more thankful for the times when you are all together. Well, I hope everything is going well with you and the fam. (hint hint, we need and update post)I Love You!
