{ Christmas Day }

Christmas day was just the same crazy hectic day that it is every year.  We had to go to my mom's house to open gifts, your daddy's parent's house to open gifts, Daddy's grandma's house to eat and spend time with that side of the family, back to my mom's house to celebrate with my family...and eat, and lastly off to Daddy's Aunt Janet's house to gorge some more and celebrate with those crazy people.  Good luck keeping up in the future kiddo!

Every year we receive great gifts that we all love but this year I got one of the best and most touching gifts ever. 

Your grandma and grandpa were one of the few people that knew what we were going through.  I had joked with your grandma before Christmas about getting a bell for your daddy to take care of me while I was on bed rest after the embryo transfer. 

Your grandma gave me a box to open that had a card attached to the outside.  We usually don't have cards on our presents so it was a little strange.  I opened the card and read words that instantly brought tears to my eyes.  Inside the box was my bell and a necklace.  The combination of the saying on the necklace, the wording in the card and the bell for me after surgery made me cry like a baby.  It also may have been a little worse thanks to the hormones I was taking. 

Thank you Teresa, for your support, strength, and unconditional love through all of this...
