Nice to be appreciated and have a cooperative spirit from your family. Little is more thrilling to a mother than seeing her kids (of any age) rise to an occasion.

I hope you had a lovely Christmas celebration. My mum has been very sick lately, and not able to do her wonderful christmas everything. This year my dad also stepped to help! </p> <p>So nice to see him (in his 70s) wrapping gifts and doing the Christmas dinner prep and cooking with me, and even better to see my mum relax a bit to know that we have everything in control. I wish you the best for the new year and hope you get to wear your lovely tiara often! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-christmas-ever#post-1763275 Mon, 26 Dec 2016 21:30:18 +0000 Angie 1763275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your boys ROCK, Queen Carla.

Seems like your boys outdid themselves! But don't you feel so loved and so proud that they made sure Christmas was special even when you didn't have time??? </p> <p>Have a wonderful Holiday season with the family, Carla. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-christmas-ever#post-1763108 Mon, 26 Dec 2016 01:58:31 +0000 Carla 1763108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'm sure that I have had many great Christmases ove the past 50++ years, but invariably it has been about other folks, and me being the holiday fairy that makes things happen! This year my plans got hijacked by 'work' and I just didn't have the time or energy. I managed some greenery, some baking, and provisioning around the holiday meals. I didn't manage much by way of gifts (even though we are minimalist gift givers) and we didn't even have a tree.</p> <p>You know what happened? The menfolk in my household stepped into the breach! DH, not known for his gift shopping acumen, came through 100% with thoughtful gifts for the boys, and for me. What DH couldn't do, DSs 1 and 2 delivered.</p> <p>I got to sleep in this morning, awoke to cinnamon buns and coffee, and holiday music. Gifts were modest, but spot on! I love every one 100%! Beautiful woolen socks for my cold feet, a book on women pioneers in gardening and their gardens (gorgeous!), a new (women's specific) bicycle seat ( I damaged mine in a fall this summer), and a few other esoteric items that reveal that the gift givers 'know' me. </p> <p>I would never have thunk it! but after such a strange (and difficult) year - Christmas 2016 will stand out as a 'best ever.' </p> <p>Wishing all wonderful Fabbers a Happy Holiday!</p> <p>#1. wearing royal purple and my tiara most of the day<br /> #2 remnant of luncheon<br /> #3 comfort amongst chaos </p>
