Letter to Santa

Dear Santa,

I want some baby kittens. And a star wars guitar. And I want my own video game thing.... Nintendo.

From,
The Babe


Dear The Babe,

I'm sorry but if you had read Section 5A Appendix C of Santa's fine print you would have seen that Santa does not give perishable items, live animals or anything considered toxic. Also, Santa is morally apposed to guitars and Star Wars. It has to do with his Amish upbringing. And last but not least, according to Santa's list, you already own your own video game thing..... Nintendo.

So we regret to inform you that you will have to settle for the presents Santa's Elves already made for you a dumb 100+ piece marble run including 20 marbles and neato spinning pieces that your father can help you put together.

Love,
Santa's Helper

PS Santa does not take returns either.

Big Decisions

I hate making big decisions. I hate making decisions in general. But especially life altering ones. I always wonder what if I had chosen the other. Or what if I chose the wrong one.

I hate even deciding what's for dinner much less making real grown-up decisions. I think it's because decisions I make now affect my children. When it was just Russ and I, sure they affected us but not so much others.

Last year at this time we were making big decisions also! What is it with Christmas?

Pray for us that we will make the right decision.

Etsy Shop

So yesterday I got bored and decided to open an etsy shop. I'm thoroughly impressed! It was very easy to use, had lots of features and cost like $.20 per item to list (plus a 3.5% fee when, I mean if, it sells). I'm still trying to figure everything out. But it's fun! Here's the link to my site:
