License to Drive.... & Randomness.....

Chance took Brittany to get her license today. She called me around 9:45 this morning to tell me she got it.... She was so excited. She did not want to go anywhere tonight can you believe it??? She has her whole day planned out tomorrow. She is added to the insurance and is ready to go.... I on the other hand am not that much ready for her to hit the streets. All I can do is pray that she will be safe......


I am just in disbelieve that Christmas Eve is tomorrow. I have to say I am ready though. Just can not believe it is here already. It seems like it comes and goes so fast.


My sister in law Dee cooked us supper tonight. When I got to her house to pick up my kids she had supper ready for us to take home... How sweet and it was soooo good too... Thanks a Bunch.. Dee!!!!


I get to go get the girls surprises tomorrow. What I took Eva and Katherine to do Saturday will be ready tomorrow. So I will go get them and wrap them up and give them to the mommies to open Christmas morning. I cant wait to see them...


As I was reading Chris's blog the other day it did get me thinking about what Christmas is all about and about how we as parents rush around trying to get our kids everything on there wish list.....Why is it we do these things... Everyone has there reasons. There are so many... I am just as fault as the next person so believe me I am not calling anyone out... I think that once you start a trend. You know getting your kids everything or at least trying to you cant really change things. My BFF Teresa is more into the traditions of the season rather than the gift giving. She lets her kids ask for 3 gifts, why??? Because baby Jesus only got 3 gifts.... Good hu? Now her kids understand and don't ask questions. If I was to tell Brittany and Taelor that they could only ask for 3 things they would look at me like I was on crack. I found myself today in Target going through the toys looking and thinking I may need to buy Erin something else... Then it hit me like a TON of bricks she has so much already.... What was I thinking?? She does not need anything else....I did not buy her anything and was proud that I did not. Christmas is not all about how many gifts you can get, or how many you can buy one person.

I think that the giving part of the season is so much better than the receiving part. I LOVE doing stuff for others... Once you start it is hard to stop. When you do it anonymously it is EVEN better. Try it for someone that may be on hard times, down on there luck, whatever the case may be.. It is not too late to do this either. Go get a gift card and then give it to someone that you know could use it. It is the best feeling EVER!!!!!

Merry Christmas :)
