Happy Holidays

It's been a while.  It seems I type that every time I log into this blog.

I wish I still had the motivation to blog like I did in the past.  I loved to tell the stories of our family, and writing about it came easy.  It's not like that anymore.  I struggle for inspiration.

Well, it's Christmas time again.  I am blessed to have the boys this year for Christmas.  I rips my heart out when I'm not around the boys on holidays.  I'll never get comfortable with that. 

We are all looking forward to traveling to Grandma's house for the Christmas break.  It's going to be fantastic to have some vacation time, and spend it with the boys, Mom and my brother.  I certainly need the break.

I'll try to take pictures this Christmas and post them.  It's unbelievable how much the boys have grown. 

Happy Holidays! 

Charlie Brown: Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?
Linus Van Pelt: Sure, Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about.

Linus Van Pelt: Lights, please.

Linus Van Pelt: "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not:"
[Linus drops his security blanket on purpose]
Linus Van Pelt: "for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'"
[Luke 2:8-14 KJV]
Linus Van Pelt: [Linus picks up his blanket and walks back towards Charlie Brown] That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
