Christmas has come and gone.

Merry Belated Christmas!
Jacob's 2nd Christmas has come and gone. He got lots of toys, and I am not going to take up an entire post listing them all because I am sure I would forget some. On Christmas Eve we spent the day at David's grandparent's house and left there to come to my parent's house at 10:30 pm. I got about 4 hours of sleep and woke up to open gifts with my family and then we went to David's parent's and opened more presents. I have to say this Christmas was good to me. I received lots of wonderful gifts and even some I didn't expect! I hope I thanked everyone enough and if not I hope you know I am grateful.
David's Christmas sucked because Santa doesn't go to Iraq. I guess the "bad guys" don't like Santa. I saved David's Christmas presents and he will be able to open them when he gets to Texas.
I will be leaving for Texas on January 7th. Everyone tells me I must be excited but really I am not. Maybe once I am in Texas the excitement will hit me. This reunion is long over do and I just want us to be together again.... I think I am feeling more of a relief then anything else.
Jacob has been sick with diarrhea for 2 weeks now. I am going to take him to the ER, again, if it isn't better tomorrow. Last night he screamed for almost an hour with stomach pain. He would pull his legs up and make tight fists, the whole time screaming out in pain. I knew it was his stomach and I felt so bad. I almost started crying myself.
I will be at my parent's place for a few more days then I am back to Grand Forks to pack up and then I am off to Texas.
Jesus came to bless this world, let us all rejoice in the blessing of the Lord.
