A Visit From St. Nick

Tuesday, December 27, 2005

Santa came and went again. His magic sprinkled everywhere. We basked in the glow, but it dims quickly. I got a new camera (thank you, Mr.C, you got the hints :). You will notice a drastic difference in the quality of my photographs. My two sons; the babes' first Christmas. I love you both, the first Christmas as a bigger family.
I thank you, blog friends, for all your Merry Christmas wishes. The collective warmth was felt. I especially want to thank Tim, who unbelievably, sent me a signed Rosie O'Donnell painting. Yellow wishes to you, my friend. Be safe in Miami.

    SkyeBlue;
    Thank you; it feels like you all are!

    Michelle;
    Nice to be back :)

    Heidi;
    I sometimes have to do this, too. I hope there are some sprinkle left as well...Yes, Mr.C. certainly did do well. I am very lucky. As for the painting. I think we should share it; perhaps we could each have it on alternating years....I haven't forgotten about the package! I'll e-mail you very very soon. Promise. And I'll explain the delay when I do. Thanks again for getting the info. for me.

    Starfish;
    Please don't wallow; although sometimes this gets out thoughts flowing.

    Christmas passes all too quickly, if you ask me. You blink and poof! it's over. Well done Mr. C!

    Chloe;
    Oh he will love to read your comment! He wondered if I had posted that he had given me a new camera. His words: "How could I not get you a new camera when you had been talking about it to the whole world...if I didn't, I would have had to face them all." or something to that effect. This blog has been helpful in more ways than one!

    MissB:
    I feel the same way; blink, it's gone. I wish I could bottle Christmas and magically pull it out of the cupboard whenever necessary. I wish I could spread all the goodness around a little bit more. I hope your Christmas was good.

    Hurray for your new camera. The pictures are fabulous. I tried stealing a cookie, lol.

    Glad the family had a wonderful time. Glad your back too, you've been missed.
