Today is Chirstmas day and I am having a moment of peace and quiet..... as I sit here, I am reflecting on Christmas' in the past..... Ones that come to mind right away are my children's first Christmas... Jennifer was two weeks old at her first Christmas and Kelly was only 5 days old at his first Christmas. I remember wrapping them up in red and laying them under the tree so show what a gift they were for us.
They are now grown and on their own.
Jennifer lives in a house she bought here in Bentonville. She is close to us and we see her pretty often. She also gets to "take care" of her MewMaw and PawPaw which she and they enjoy.
Kelly lives in North Little Rock in a house he bought there. He is engaged to Lyndsay and they are getting married in April.
As I write this I am waiting for all of them to come to the house so we can have our "Christmas".
Another christmas comes to mind is another first Christmas for, I think Jane... only I remember this Christmas for the Baby doll that "Santa" gave me with "real" baby cloths... of course these were some that Jane had out grown and would fit a baby doll. I remember really loving that doll and playing with it a lot. (I had gotten up in the middle of the night to see if "Santa" had been there yet to find the baby doll and cloths already there! I had to go back to bed and wait for time to get up and really find the doll and the cloths.)
