I'd love to hear from you! Click "comments," below.
Too clever!! And very funny. And I want a No bird for Christmas, please. In fact, Ithink making No Birds would be a fabulous activity night project for the MMs since we all need one functioning No Bird.
Simply perfect. You capture all the joy and all the chaos, all the frustration simultaneously. The trick is seeing it “through a child’s eyes” where everything was always so magical. Love you..
Ceal, Julie – Merry merry Christmas – love you both. Amanda is thoroughly enjoying, and Joe delighted that our very late purchase of a tree led to a freebie.
We will decorate tonight, and I’M SO GLAD TO HAVE LU-LEE.
well obviously this is the best ever because it’s about GLORIOUS ME! the true effect requires joe esq. and thee singing it together.
merry merry,
luli

Catherine, as far as I know, the Jackson five aren’t spending the night (though i’m capable of being confused). If you are, please bring your own sheets, and some Valium.
