Holy Cow!
It is so hard to believe that it is already December!!! Shocking! So, now... only 3 weeks, literally until Christmas! I am sooooo far behind! I started looking at my holiday to-do list and man there is alot of stuff on there that needed to be done already! Arghhhh!
I was fortunate that I have already purchased a few gifts for the kiddos and got presents for their teachers, so that in itself is a huge hurdle jumped!
We have had a lot of distractions this last week - mostly from Ukraine, that have left us doing more talking than action. My friend Deb (Bergmann) and her husband are/were in Ukraine and have decided to come home without a child. My heart goes out to them as I know how much time and energy they put into this adoption trip. You can read their story if you like on the left side... I have been getting 2 or 3 emails a day for the last week from Ukraine - and rarely is it good news, so that has been stressful. Maybe I should stay off the computer for a few days and not read email.... at least then all the news and comment would come every few days!! :) Oh well! That is not possible - so I'll just have to be choosy on what I read!
Is everyone else getting ready for the holidays?? Who out there is DONE????

Hi Amy,
I am really far behind. I had intentions to shop early but it never happened. I plan on making 1 or 2 power shopping trips! Our tree is going up Friday. Connor has been asking for weeks and we were under the weather last weekend.
I am always so sad to hear about families coming home without a child. How heartbreaking.
Love the new Christmas music on the blog!
Christine
