Dear Santa:
Just a little message
it’s the same one every year
I do not yearn for presents
as Christmas Day draws near
what I wish for yuletide
is not inside your sack
I have been blessed already
there’s nothing that I lack
because on Christmas morning
when we gather ’round the tree
to see these little faces
is the only gift I need.
I’m taking a short break from blogging until after the New Year.
Wishing one and all a happy and healthy Holiday season!

Oh my, the time I spend on my inbox frankly is too much time, and it’s frustrating when there is do much more to be done. If you find out how to find extra time let me know! In an email! Ha ha 😆

Love this xmas poem Jennifer Im slowly finding posts in my inbox, I feel like I never keep up so I apologise for arriving late yet again. I need to ask people how they find the time to read and comment on all the wonderful blogs out there. I may have to do some culling.

I try to explain that to my children, but I guess you have to be a parent to understand. They insist (now that they’re adults) that they must purchase me something. No–just come visit, call me, that’s all I need.

Naturally they want to give you something for Christmas, Jacqui. But yes, the last thing we moms think of is getting gifts for ourselves. Goes with the territory. 🙂
