Morning!
I certainly hope your holidays were as wonderful and enjoyable as mine. But get this – it was NOT because of the gifts…whatsoever.
Not that our gifts weren’t utterly and mind-blowingly magnificent, of course! The hit present for our kids were the dollar store laser pointers – Honorable Boy 1 and Honorable Boy 2 spent literally hours pretending they were spy masters and scribbling secret codes onto the walls in the dark (love their imaginations!).
(I have to thank the neighbors’ kids for this idea – 2 weeks ago when I came home in the dark, I spotted a bright Shoot Me Now! dot dancing in my garage, and realized it was from the neighbor’s backyard. Being a stiff-necked individual, of course I said to meself,
Jeepers! I HAVE to get those!
But I digress. 
)
Anywhos!
And the kids got the husband and me….really bizarre gifts as well, but the best part was Honorable Girl 1 handwrote 5 adventure stories to go with each present. My gosh, her writing is beyond college level (exciting, intriguing and just plain fun!)…and what a thoughtful thing to do for us.
The laughter and love we all shared – it reminded me that the holidays really are all about family – the people you love, the friends you cherish, the laughter you share.
And that…that says it all.
Enjoy,
Barbara Ling
