This was probably one of the toughest Christmases for me. It was my very first Christmas apart from my family. I cried a lot in private but when Christmas Eve came I couldn't hold it in anymore. It was also a very difficult Christmas for Judy (my mother-in-law). We lost Larry (her husband, Jojo's grandpa, Jon's dad, and my FIL) earlier in the year to cancer. She was so afraid to be home alone on Christmas that she made the trip all by herself to Russia!!! We managed to make the most of it! Josiah was one week short of 16 month here.

OK call me crazy but i love your short hair...
OK Crazy Melissa,
Actually I am growing my hair long to donate it next summer and then it will get chopped super short again. I donated it when Jojo was 6 months, kept it short for a while and then after Nathan was born I thought I should grow out again for the same cause!!
