This post really, really touch...WOW, so beautiful. This post really, really touched me. It's funny because I don't remember y'all as poor & I grew up with y'all! I just remember what a fun time it was at your house! Your mom didn't focus on y'all being "poor", but I remember lots of laughter at your house; one reason I loved getting away from mine! And yes, how hard it is for kids not to have what others had. We never had the "name brand" or "popuar" stuff either but it has helped mold me into what I am today, knowing the expensive stuff is not what Christmas or life is about! Thanks so much for this post.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045631253291559833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897573703113153506.post-2402700447207579082009-12-18T09:29:38.280-06:002009-12-18T09:29:38.280-06:00I love looking at those pictures!

I'm sure I'll be reminising about Christmas's past when I get around to looking at those photos. I remember my Christmas times as being so exciting. Just magical. I was blessed immensely when I was a child. It took for me to become an adult to realize it. Thanks for sharing hon.
