I'm super excited for Drayson's first Christmas. I wish his cousin Mei could be here with him! I'm sure he will enjoy playing with boxes and paper more than he will enjoy the toy smart phone I got him. But I am still excited to watch him open it.
I also wish there were 3 of me during the holidays. Because I have three families I would love to spend the whole day with but just cant.
This New Year's Eve will be a tender one. My Grandma DeVona passed away last year on New Year's Eve just before midnight. I know she got a chance to hang out with Drayson while he was still in Heaven waiting to board the crazy train that is Doug and I. But I can't help but wish she was here with us still so I could watch her with Dray baby. I miss her so much. There's a part of me in denial that she isn't in St. George just hanging out still. When I do let myself think about not being able to give her a hug or talk with her I break down a little. I cant wait to see and hug my sassy 4'9 friend again. But until then....we shall play canasta and swear up a storm in honor of her. New year's eve we're going to play canasta all night in honor of that wonderful Grandma, Mother, and Best Friend. I am going to channel her and kick everyone's butts.
