Merry Christmas

This is the first year that I have not written a Christmas newsletter, but I guess I need to get myself together and do one because I will only be dissapointed in me if I don't.  I love the legacy of the letter.  It detials the growth of the kids in a way that nothing else ever could.  We just had the one year anniversary of losing Papa Don on December 19, 2012.  I know it was a tough day for Mema, but she seems to be doing okay.  My mom got a very bad staff infection two weeks ago and spent the last two weeks in Rockdale County Hospital.  She came home a couple of nights ago and I am so glad.  I am feeling very blessed that things with her are not worse.  She is taking dialysis treatments and will do so for a while.  Hoping it isn't forever, just for a while.  Wish I could spend more time with her, but between the kids and work, it's almost impossible.
