I cry...

Yes, I would have to say I am a little emotional these days.  Well, little would be an understatement.  Oh and let's include sensitive.  I think I cry anywhere from 10 to 15 times a day.  Mainly because I am happy and full and preggo.  I cried the other day {just a little} when carolers came into our office. They were wonderful and Silent Night was just too much for me to handle.  I cry when I see the Kay Jewelry commercials.  I cry when I think that my babies are getting to be big and we have another one on the way.  I cry most when I sit and try to think about what to get everybody for Christmas and all I can think is we have everything we need.  Again, we are full.  This is the first Christmas that I don't want one single thing.  Maybe a red cardigan but I can do without.  Seriously, I don't know what to get my kids or my husband.  I just want to love on them. I want to go through our Santa traditions and our baby Jesus books but without all the gifts.  Is it because I am getting old?  Maybe.  But I love the feeling of not wanting anything.  I just want to give love and compassion.  It sounds silly but I have no desire to give gifts.  I would rather hang out with my family and watch Christmas Vacation, cook yummy foods, play games, laugh together and show my kids what Christmas is truly about. And this is exactly what I picture when my kids are grown up and they have their babies.  All of us together enjoying each other being happy!!!  See, it's evident of the sensitivity and the emotional wreck that I am at this very moment.  It's dangerous!!! 

And because we can't have a post without a picture, here are the kids at HSU's Cowboy Christmas...

I may have already shown this picture...oops!  I have also lost my mind.  Excuse the messy mouth and scraggly clothes.  We really had not planned on attending this event.  But either way, they really do love Santa!! I am not sure if Santa loves the kids :)

I cry way more than I ever did before I had kids. So weird and makes me feel like an idiot but I can't change it! LOL! Plus - I love the pictures of dirty mouths and messy hair! Those are the real ones - real life! (that is what I try to tell myself anyways!) But I must admit those are my favorite pictures to look at from when I was a kid! It is funny to see myself and brothers looking like we had a very active day - to put it nicely!
