Wow, it has been a long time since I have posted.  I actually took a week off from work for Christmas.  We shall see how the family handles it.  My eleven-year-old has already freaked out.  We have had two battles where I had to hold him down to stop him from fighting.  He has the same temper that I had when I was his age.  All I can do is love him and pray for God’s help.  At least both times, once he got himself calmed down, we got to spend some quality time together.  Hopefully that will be the last outburst and we can spend some quality time without.  Anyway, tonight is our usual Christmas Eve routine.  Our Church has 5 services and we are involved in 4 of them. 

My mother-in-law arrived yesterday.  Somehow we kept her visit a secret from the children.  They were so excited to see her. 

Merry Christmas to you.
