My youngest daughter - Santa's Helper

Tis the Season for Love...and Giving! xoxoxoxo


And.....sometimes the most precious gifts do not cost any $$$$$. In these financial times it is difficult for most of us.

But the gifts of your love...your time....even a hug are priceless. I know I get such pleasure when I get to visit my children and grandchild via Windows Live Messenger. We all have cameras....so we actually see and hear each other "real time". I Love it!!!

This year my daughter in coastal Virginia decided to give of her time and some inexpensive gifts (which of course she beautifully wrapped and decorated in her special "decorator" way) to a local hospital. She was a Santa's Helper....."Santa" and his wife both work at the hospital and are also clients of my daughter's decorating/design business.

I'm so proud of my daughter...Michele.......my "baby girl" (she's my youngest daughter).You go girl!

She has no children of her own..as much as she would have loved to have had babies...it just wasn't meant to be and I think she has come to terms with that as difficult as it was.

But, she is a wonderful, loving "Auntie" and "Godmother". God Bless my daughter ~ Dawn Michele.
In time I'll introduce you to all my family. Michele....she has gone by her middle name since a teen...(pictured at left in 1999 on a visit to Maui) is my second child, her sister Terry was first, my third was their brother, Tommy.

There all grown up now and I love each one of them soooo much and am very proud of them. They are my pride and joy and the best thing in my life that I have ever done...is being their mother!



Merry Christmas Everyone . . . . . . .
