Christmas Greetings

There are few things I enjoy more than receiving Christmas greetings from family and friends.  It is the only time of year that I feel like I am stalking the mailman.  I open each envelope with great anticipation and I look forward to seeing how each family has grown and hearing their news from the past year.  I feel so blessed to have great friends and family and 

I welcome this opportunity to think about those dearest to me.  

Sidenote: best Christmas greeting this year came from my cousin-in-law, Mindy.  She is busy with six kids including a new set of twins and a darling daughter with down syndrome.  Her card read:

" 2011--We Survived. The End".  Ha!
