- December 31, 2005, 12:01:41 AMI got lots of love & huggs on X-Mas. I have 1 child who still believes in Santa So the other needs to get stuff from Santa also. The smiles on my kid's faces were the best presents I could have ever gotten. I told hubby I would break his fingers if he bought me anything.
Then We took Tins of popcorn with Movie rental giftcards to all the houses with kids in the neighborhood & said that the gift was to be used as a whole family if all possible. We didnt leave our names :)

- December 30, 2005, 08:36:20 AMyes it is great that so many step parents are out there so willing to take in their spouses children. Saddest thing about this is she sent sent the courts a letter pretty much telling hubby and I to tell him to forget she ever existed and her way of life is far more important than him. Which is fine with us. I don't view him as my step son but as 100% mine which has meant the world to hubby. :)

thats so cool. We recently got permanent custody of my step son-his mother signed her rights away to the the state clearing the way for us to keep him for good. She chose drugs over him and so now we have him. Which is good and this was his first Christmas with us to and he cried his eyes out most of Christmas morning because Santa remembered him this year. Hubby cried to. It was one of those hallmark moments. We have started the process for me to formally adopt him and it all should be said and done by late March. ;D
Blue,
I am so happy to hear that you will finally be getting custody. We've talked about it before so I know the details. I am so happy for him, and your family. That little boy deserves a good life, and a good mom. I am glad he found one in you! :)

That's very nice Bree :) and precisely why I didn't respond to the thread until Dan's post. I particularly liked how you described your Grandfather as being 87 yrs young, nice touch and may he have many yrs ahead of him O0
Thank you very much, Gemini that was very sweet of you to say.

- December 27, 2005, 10:34:20 PMI have not posted what I got for Christmas, but I can tell you what me and my family did for Christams....
I got a lot of really nice gifts, but I am the type of person who would rather give then receive. My family helped out in a soup kitchen and gave out warm blankets to the needy people. Then we went to the Pediatrics Ward where my fiancee` works and gave out presents to children who do not have parents. Then we headed for our last stop before heading to my parents for Christmas Dinner and that is the Nursing Home my Grandfather is in. He is 87 yrs. young, can't walk and is totally blind but nothing holds him back, and there are no words that can describe how happy all the folks there enjoyed the party that the staff and family put on for just them. I truly think that is what the true meaning of Christmas is all about for me and my family and we all enjoyed outslevies so much.
So do not say that everyone did not give of themselves this Christmas just because they did not post it here. The topic was "Christmas is over....So.....what did ya get?!?!?", and that is what most people are posting.
I do not like to boast of the things my family and I do, but I wanted to respond that we "All Give of Ourselves" in our own special way.

It's ok I knew you were kidding, it's all in good fun anyways. :D

My family is Military and EVERY holiday when i am cooking my family meals I cook atleast 2 extra meals for Military people stationed where we are here overseas and take it to the work floor and make sure they have a home cooked meal and I invite single sailors and married families that have no where to go and missing home. ANd atleast once a month a have a big Sunday meal and invite anyone wanting to come over for a big southern meal so my giving is year around and it will be like that until I cant do it anymore.
