Just needed to say Thanks!!!

Thank you to everyone that made Christmas special and bought for my 4 this year. As a single mother and only 1 income things are overwhelming at times. We had a great Christmas. The looks on the kids faces on Christmas morning was priceless. Thanks Jesse, you are the best.

Christmas Day

Raygan's big gift was a 3 story Barbie house.
Grandma is there but not awake yet.
Christmas morning at the Parm house.
Santa brought me a new warm sweater.
There is a floor underneath all the gifts.
The kids having a blast at what Santa brought them.
Grandma and Papaw bought the kids huge coloring books with colored pencils and paint sets.
Riley got his own guitar.
The boys get Nintendo D.S.'s from Mr. Claus.
The kiddos earned Bible Bucks from church and bought their own Christmas presents for everyone this year.
Santa brought games for their D.S.'s.
Raygan got a Playstation 2 Karaoke game with microphones.
Raygan got a kiddy camcorder.
Thanks to Jesse the kids were able to get gifts from Santa.
Christmas is about Jesus birth, but people tend to forget that. Christmas is also about being with the people you hold dear to you the most. A simple present to someone that you love is nothing compared to the gift you give of your heart all year long.
Riley handed me the bible and we read Luke 2 before any presents were opened. I was so proud he remembered and waited to open his gifts. Hopefully this tradition of reading about Jesus' birth Christmas morning like when I was growing up also will be passed on through my childrens' families and so on. The morals and values I instill in my children will hopefully be carried on as adults.
