Merry Christmas!

I only had a minor meltdown today ...

My youngest sister wound up getting me baby items for my Christmas presents.  I knew this already and thought that I would be ok with opening them (she tried to hide them from me).  Instead, I told her it would be alright and then she told me to think of them as Faith gifts.

Faith.  That is something I am clearly lacking these days.

I reached for the big blue bag (clever Ama.zon packing) and pulled out a boppy and a diaper caddy.  I started crying right then and there.  I guess that is somewhat normal behavior, right?  I mean, our failed adoption only happened 10 days ago.

Other then that, Christmas was good ... we had brunch at the location where Matt and I had our wedding reception.  Santa was pretty good to me (iPad 2 and a sewing machine) and all the other gifts were great as well.

The one thing I liked best?  Being surrounded by family right when I needed them the most ...

I hope your Christmases were just as special and filled with love.
