Christmas Ornanments

If you remember last year, Parker ruined the Christmas ornament that he gave me in 2009 that said,"Merry Christmas mom and dad, love popper" I was devastated!! (mostly because I was extremely pregnant and hormonal) He still feels bad about it and when we were putting ornaments on the tree this year he brought it up and said how sorry he was for erasing the message. I'm still sad about it, but I know it was an accident and at least I wrote about it so it will never be forgotten. Well this year, my mom helped the kids, Paige and Parker, make new ones for me. My mom had watched the kids for me for a little while one evening and when I came back they had s surprise for me. I opened the presents and they had each recorded a message on an ornament for me. Paige's said, "I do love Christmas and presents, and I do love mom and dad!!" it was so sweet!! I love that it said that because that is how she has been talking lately and I always want to remember it. Parker's said, "Merry Christmas. I love you mom and dad." It was sweet as well. I was very excited about getting them and gave the kids strict rules on listening to them. I put them up high on the tree so no kids could reach them and have very carefully played them back. I am very sentimental and these ornaments melted my heart. I can't wait to listen to them next year when the kids have grown up and to hear how they have changed.
