I found this on my facebook memories from 2014 this morning.

Dear MOM, I miss you so much. Christmas was not the same without you. You would of been proud of the dinner i cooked though. It was half way decent. I didnt use your Christmas dishes so it wasnt pretty but it was eatable . I had a friend waltz into my life just as you were leaving. did you send her to me? did you know i couldnt handle all this on my own? Thank you for that. seems as if every one got the gifts they asked santa for. But you know all this already . I feel you in every breath i take every thing i do. I wonder, is this the right way, the right thing to do? Then i close my eyes and we are together again if only for a brief second and i hear your words of wisdom. "I love you child, do what you think is best". Love you too mom.

Thanks for the laugh, Granny.

Reminds me of something we had happen almost ten years ago. Here in Missouri we have to have our vehicles safety inspected. One Summer we were sitting in the garages' waiting room while our car was getting inspected.

It' was a pretty stressful time for us. We were dealing with an employee having stolen 50.000 dollars from the business and not eating right. DH had gained weight and had decided to grow out his beard and hair a bit. I called it his duck dynasty, ZZ Top phase. Anyway, I noticed a little girl of about 4 watching him. Shily, she walked up to him and asked 'are you Santa?' Bless him, my husband, used to dealing with kids, Leaned towards her and asked her if she thought he was Santa and she nodded and asked him if she could tell him what she wanted for Christmas. Her mother who was laughing and shaking her head told her daughter that Christmas was a long way off. The little girl thought about it and asked my husband if she could tell him what she wanted for her birthday then because her birthday was in a few weeks. He told her that would be fine and the little one proceeded to name off what she was hoping for before giving him a hug and hurrying back to her mom.

About that time they came in and told us our car was ready. As we got outside he shook his head and said he through it was time to cut the hair and beard and lose some weight.

Thus ended his ZZ Top Duck Dynasty phase.

Well I never seen anyone have so much fun with a plunger then Robert did today. I needed one for my sink and after careful inspection of what walmarts had he picked the "right one". Then he proceeded to test it out through the store. I didnt mind that so much as when we were checking out and he stuck it to the convayer belt. The boy checking us out struggled for a few mins. to get it off as I was giggling and Robert kept saying, "Why you laughing mom?" The cashier paid him back by sticking it to where the bags go. hahaa We get home and he is testing it out on all the critters to see what they acted like when it got stuck next to them. He then started filling the sink up and started to plunge. Well, a whole ton of rotted food started coming up and he yells,OMG and he started gagging and running. hahahahaa End of that new toy I guess.
