They won't mind that you went somewhere without hot cider and cookies - they will just have that wonderful memory of being together, of doing that together. You're an amazing Mom!!!Hannahhttp://blairsboys.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27598861.post-61111821131980445012009-12-08T11:52:05.071-06:002009-12-08T11:52:05.071-06:00You ARE blessed.

We went from having a big fancy house and multiple shiny cars to a teeny house and my mom driving a 20-year-old $200 Buick. Truly. And while I *know* that those were lean years, I don't remember them as bad. The quality of our life is not defined by how much we had but how we lived it. Thus ends my greeting card quote for the day.CaraBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614627167922944626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27598861.post-29808534213218002222009-12-08T07:16:29.003-06:002009-12-08T07:16:29.003-06:00Great attitude and great post.
