Domestic Christmas Goddess.....

This holiday season I've turned into a domestic goddess. So far I've made gingerbread house ornaments from scratch, popcorn and cranberry garland, Christmas snowman paintings, home made stockings with embroidered reindeer....and there's so more to come. I'm also celebrating Chanukah with my friend Pete. I'm even learning one of the Jewish blessings you're supposed to recite after lighting the candles. I love Christmas and I love making things. Tallulah comes in 6 days. I'm pretty nervous but very excited. I'm kinda sad that I'm not going home for Christmas, but I'm excited that I get to offer a safe place for other people to come for Christmas.

Oh, those gingerbread houses were phenomenal! I bet your momma would be proud! Oh, I'm your momma and I am proud. I am kind of sad you won't be home for Christmas, but as long as you know you are loved and are enjoying the holiday, that is all that matters.
Love,
Mom

Aw Julie I love that your mom left you a sweet comment!
I too am impressed by your craftiness. I wish I were there....I wouldn't be able to help you because I am really bad at that kind of stuff, but I could watch and cheer you on!
