A Bit of Everything

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone!

Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas for those who celebrated. Happy Kwanza

for those who are clebrating. And a Happy and Healthy New Year for everyone

to come.

I just returned from vacation... visiting my sister in NYC. I still cannot

believe how much the city looks different. I went to NYC the week after

9-11 (just to visit my sister, who lost many friends and a boyfriend in the

towers) and the smoke was still there then, but now that it has cleared and

the towers are noticably gone and all over the city the signs with faces

and the words " Missing " are still all around... it is more sad for me. But,

anyway, I do not mean to spoil everyone's holidays with sad news.... the

good news is I am back! LOL

I am REALLY loving getting all these holiday cards! Because I was on

vacation I haven't recieved the cards that came in the last week, but will

tomorrow (if the weather holds up, as you probably saw on the news, we had

a white christmas.... 7 feet of snow in Buffalo!!!!!!).

Marcia, I'm glad you enjoyed the cards! I am a big fan of Kidder's

work and I LOVE to send her cards (that have kids with DS on them) to

everyone I know! It really shows the very BEAUTIFUL side of " our " kids...

which in my own opinion isn't too hard to show!!

Speaking of beautiful.... ANGELA.... WOW! Landon and Ashton are so big

now!!! They are so cute! Love the blonde hair on your baby boy! He is

adorable! Aref opened your card and it was our first (and so far only)

picture card... he said " who are these kids? " and I said " they are from

Multiples " and he said " No, none of these kids have DS! " It was hard to

convince him!

I'll keep this from becoming a book now. Holiday Wishes to all!

Cheers!
