I usually love the holidays. This year wasn't depressing, but wasn't the greatest...
We haven't seen Alexis, Seth, Audree, or Dylan for the holidays... Sigh
Didn't know about Lexie's surgery for tonsils and adenoids... was happy to hear it went well and she is now on the road to getting better and over the illnesses that have kept her down this past few years... Hugs Honey
Seth is a sweetheart... He calls me and texts me and keeps my in his loop. I love cell phones and IM's , and FB (facebook).
Kirk moved the first of Dec. From Jess' condo to an apt that leaks.... Guess he has pots and bowls keeping the drips at bay!!
Holly had her baby on Dec 5. Warren Andrew Strong. Oh boy, she has her hands full. Seems to handle it better than I do and did. WaWa is so cute. Bennett's name for him. We are adapting sounds to him for better communication tools. His speech therapist comes in 2x's a month to work with him. It is helping. Matt is a pill... stinker... and a love bug... Ady is constant... helpful... loud... sweet... I'm so glad her name is Adylin and not Constance... whew... she whistles as I do and it annoys others like I do... It's funny and cute and sweet... Tanner is just growing up. I can't believe he will be 10 this year. It makes sense, Holly and Davis will be married 11 yrs in Sept. hm
With both Al and John living with us... it gets crazy sometimes.. but on the whole I like it. It is fun to develop a relationship with your grown children that I never thought I'd have. We talk and converse... run errands together and annoy each other in a funny positive way.
Life is good!!
2011 has the potential to be a great year... It's new and fresh... Time to put last year behind us and learn from our errors. I wish I were perfect, error free... But I am not. That would only work in a perfect world and we do not have that... Not even close!! We have the opportunity to take a class... plant something new... develop a talent... cook something new (I already did this... Navy Bean soup like my mom's) and keep it up... Failure is required!! Sounds bad but it is not... it's growth...
Happy 2011...
