Money was a little tight this year, and it was our first Christmas EVER with both SDs. I still managed to get Hubby a decent gift (a new cell phone) and a few nice things for SDs (android cell phones, portable dvd players, boots and a game system). However, Hubby's nicest gift for me was a remote from the dollar tree.

I didn't complain. It didn't even occur to ME that I didn't get anything that nice. After all, I was able to spend Christmas with my family (Mom and oldest sister were diagnosed with aggressive cancer in the last month). AND, I'm finally done paying the attorney for custody of the SDs.

However, little eyes were watching, and a certain little heart is filled with love for me!

My sister took Sds to the afterChristmas sales tonight. SD12 bought me a new makeup case, a "gold &diamond" (plastic) bracelet, some dollar perfume, and chocolates!

I wouldn't of felt any more loved if the "purse" said coach, the bracelet was crusted with real diamonds, and the chocolates had been godiva.

I hope someday, she'll know why this was my best Christmas since I was 10!
