This is my kindergarten picture. I remember my mom fixing my hair and in my mind I was sure that the barrette was not straight. When I look at this picture I am reminded of that little girl who was so excited about everything. Life was uncomplicated and worry free. My world consisted of me and my brother and my mom and dad, grandparents that thought I 'hung the moon' and a handful of relatives that loved me. Christmas time was the best! Chip and I were the only grandkids and Santa was really good to us. There was so much wonder and excitement in the whole holiday and those were the days when you got out of school 2 weeks before Christmas. There would be cookie baking and open houses and lots of people stopping by. It was a great time to be a kid. These were the times when I would get up before everyone else and sit and stare at the tree. I know that not everyone has good memories and not all of mine are either but I am so thankful for those sweet days that God gave me to enjoy with my family. Hopefully we can all try to forget the 'not so good' ones and focus on the 'good' ones.

That picture is ADORABLE! I can see everyone of your kids in that picture. Christmas really was an amazing time of the year as a child. I try to remember that now as a parent and make the most of getting ready for the holidays.
