Congratulations on your reunions with your children!! I have always believed that family is the single most important blessing God has bestowed upon us.

For Christmas...I have everything I need right here. The breath of life, clear skies and rivers all around me. My family is close by and I have strong relationships w/ my parents and my brother/gf/nephew. I have a handful of close friends that I would do anything for.

I pray for continued good health for my children and myself, especially my son who is frequently plagued by health issues.

However, if Santa is being really generous, I would love to see a box under the tree with a boatload of patience and instruction manuals on how to raise children. In addition to that an all expense paid trip to New Zealand for 2 weeks of flyfishing.
