Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to wish every single one of you who celebrate... my beautiful readers... a very Merry Christmas! Leading up to today, i honestly felt very overwhelmed by all the stresses we put ourselves through during this time of year.  I felt as though i missed out on actually enjoying some of the special moments leading up to today because i was too consumed by making sure i got presents for everyone on my list.  I think this year served as a good lesson for future Christmases.  I'm going to make a file of everyone i buy for and organize myself as best as i can so that next year, things can go a little smoother.  It's all good though... stress and all, i feel nothing but gratitude for having the things that really matter in life.  I have a beautiful family, my health and i am so loved by so many. My heart is full and ultimately, that is the greatest gift one can ever ask for.  So forgive me if i haven't posted as much, or if i go through times where i don't post as often, but i always try and remind myself that this little blog of mine is a passion, never a job.  I love writing it.... and there will be time where life gets in the way and that's OK.  It's always there for when I'm ready to post...  and when i do, it's always from the heart.  Merry Christmas... we had our annual tradition of brunch in our Christmas PJ's and just enjoyed great food, laughter, awesome presents and really... just watching my little girls enjoy the magic of it all.  I know this 'magic' won't last forever so I'm trying to enjoy all the little moments.  Hope you are too.... xoxo, Carla - FMM
