Santa, Snow & Sick!

Danielle was busy the other night working away on her Santa letter. She told me I was not too look as it was just all the things she wanted for Christmas. Of course when she went to bed I had to take a peek to see what was on her wish list. Never did I expect to find a request for gifts for my husband and I. I tell ya, it's things like this that make me so proud to be her Mother! I am not sure if you can actually see the words but she asks Santa for a game and a doll and for a great Christmas. Then she asks for Socks and a bathrobe for me and books and clothes for her Dad! Sniffle sniffle...I love that girl!


Moving right along....look what happened last night. The first snow of the year. I just love watching the snow fall. It's so breathtaking!
We didn't get much snow. Perhaps an inch or two. The sad part is that it's all gone this morning, but it was beautiful while it lasted.
Last but not least.... Brayden has been very ill since Friday with Pneumonia. Poor guy as he was complaining of chest pain earlier last week but I thought he was faking it as his sister was home sick so I forced him to go too school. Oops...I guess he has cried "wolf" a few too many times. I am sure he will make a speedy recovery now that the doctors figured out what was wrong and put him on a strong dose of antibiotics. I can't wait for all this sickness in our house to end. I feel like I haven't been out of the house in three weeks. I am also trying to ignore the fact that Christmas is just around the corner and I have no gifts made or bought yet. YIKES!!! However, if I look on the positive side of things I have accomplished so much around the house. Cooking, cleaning, knitting, exercising and even a bit of reading.

I hope you are all healthy and happy my friends!!
