Here I sit....

on this darn computer this morning, when I still have to wrap ALL of the Christmas gifts I bought! UGH! ... I will try to do it all today, so I am not rushed at the last minute.

Ed and I got Samantha a big kitchen for Christmas. Santa will be leaving it in the living room for her on Christmas Eve. I cannot wait to see the expression on her face when she comes downstairs on XMas morning!!...Poor Ed still has to assemble the whole thing, and he won't have time until Christmas Eve! I will be sure to take pics of him sprawled out on the floor surrounded with pieces of plastic and fake food! HAA!!

I am missing my sweet angel Alex so much. Today is 3 years to the date that my sweet boy went through the 8 hour surgery that we hoped would save his life, but ultimately did not...This time of year is so hard. He would have been 3 years old on Dec. 15th this year. I am dreading Jan 6th, because that is the day he passed away and went to heaven. I can't believe it has been 3 years already since I held my beautiful son....

Time sure goes by quick. It is hard to believe that my little preemie girl Samantha is 2 already! She is such a great talker! She impresses me daily with things she says and does. I never thought I would love motherhood as much as I do! I wouldn't trade it for the world!!
