Bless Your Heart

First, thank you for all of your support and kind words. It really means a lot to me and CSP. I pass on to CSP the things I learn from y’all and we’ve both come to rely on my bloggy friends as a support system, esp with the adoption. We’re still mulling things over.

On a lighter note…. I thought I’d share some of the fabulous gifts I received for Christmas. M&L (honorary aunt and uncle) really spoil us. And they really know us well and are incredible gift givers. They gave me this cute retro cell phone receiver in pink. It really works! And it’s awesome cause now I can cradle the phone between my head and shoulder.
They also gave me this gorgeous tea set. I’m a tea drinker and have been wanting to start a tea pot collection and now I can!

One of the wonderful gifts from my in-laws was a book I’ve been dying for:I Like You by Amy Sedaris. I just love her and this book is a riot while still being informative.

On my side of the family we don’t exchange gifts amongst the adults, only the kids get presents, but CSP is an only child and we’re still non parents (for now) so we still exchange with his parents and M&L. We keep it modest though since we’re on the adoption budget. Our gifts went over really well. They included flameless candles which were a big hit since both couples have pets and are wary about lighting candles with the pets in the house. I absolutely LOVE it when I seem to pick out the perfect gift for someone, especially hard to buy fors like my in-laws & M&L. I can’t wait til we can include our children in the Christmas mix!
