All I Want for Christmas…

Sometimes teens manage to touch your heart rather than drive you up the wall.

I’d been asking my 17 year old daughter what she wanted for Christmas. She has her first job and enjoys spending her own money, but was kind of reluctant to tell me what she wanted for Christmas. Finally she says “You know what Mom, so long as we’re all together I know it will be a good holiday.”

Of course her younger brother had to add “So long as there are lots of presents!!” He’s a bit of a clown sometimes and likes to give us a hard time.
