I was going to rewrite the song with my favorite Christmas things, but let's be real here. It's 9:30 on Christmas Eve Eve & I ain't a song writer!
So here's a list: (I am a list maker!)
- playing Santa on Christmas Eve (couldn't do it without Aunt Crissy)
- adopting a needy family (delivered today! AWESOME!)
- making Christmas goodies (we now have 3 gingerbread houses!)
- cute Christmas outfits
- awesome Christmas songs (been playing since Nov.)
- holiday movies & TV specials
- DECORATIONS!
- secret pal gifts
- buying Christmas for my children (I always overdo!)
- the Christmas Story (Baby Jesus) & Twas the night before Christmas
- the excitement of my kids on Christmas morning
- breakfast with all the family after Santa (the gps, aunt Crissy & Phillip)
- my cute "Christmas Party" pants
- Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark (try it!)
So, when the bills come, when my nerves fry, when I'm feeling stressed, I'm simply remember my favorite things & then I won't feel so bad!
***I need a Christmas Miracle this year folks. It's a selfish one, but here's the deal. Bo is a BIG TIME Momma's Boy & it hurts Retro's feelings sometimes. So "Santa Daddy" got Bo a set of golf clubs. The miracle part is I need him to be more excited about those clubs than all the Thomas the Train stuff he asked for (& is obsessed with) that "Santa Momma" got back sometime in November!***

I love your favorite things list! Although I never understood why this is a Christmas song, either... Good luck on your miracle! I bet he'll love the golf clubs!
Maybe if Santa Moma is super excited about the golf clubs, it will help. That is pretty normal for a little one to be a momma's boy. Retro's time will come for sure, too :-) Love your favorite things! Merry, Merry Christmas. . . xoxo
I will pray for your Christmas miracle! Have a very Merry Christmas!!!
awwww.. maybe those clubs will help them bond.. either that or daddy better get interested in trains real quick!
Hope you have a great holiday!
He did like the clubs & played with them some. But the trains were #1. One day I'll post about the deal with him & Retro.
Did you get your Christmas miracle? Crossing my fingers you did!
My son was obsessed with Thomas at the same age...now he is almost 10 and loves golf with his dad.
