The kids have been with my in-laws since Thursday afternoon and I expect them home in a couple of days. I hear they are having a lot of cousin time, baking with grandma, and spending their days playing. I am missing them desperately and counting down the hours until they are home.

The other day at Target I bought my first Christmas present of the season. I saw this adorable shirt on the rack and I immediately thought of my girl. More often than not these days, I find her absorbed in a book!
