I spent the morning making cookies for Cash and for my daughter, Kendal's little dog, Kingston. All made from people grade ingredients. I taste test them myself, before putting them in the dehydrator to dry out. Probably not as sweet as people cookies, but pleasant tasting anyway. Once dried, they keep a long time. Well, as long as they need to.

Christmas was great! The grandsons came over for a while. Jon, the oldest, drove them. They are all three growing up, way too fast. Soon they will have out grown Mema and Pepa. I hate that. We'll still be cool to Kinsley, for a few more years anyway. She loved her bouncy house. She kept telling Sonny and me, "This sooo fun!" then, "I so excited to see Crimas." We got tired just watching her play. I didn't ask Kendal, but I bet she had no problems putting that child to bed that night. She had to be exhausted. As the afternoon grew longer, she finally asked Kendal if they could go home. She said, "I miss my other toys."

She had requested a trinoserous for Christmas, but didn't get one. I don't think she even thought about it. Next year, she will begin to learn what Christmas is all about. My New Years Resolution is to start taking her to Church with me.

I'm enjoying the Cricut that Sonny got me for Christmas. I got it back in November and just couldn't wait until Christmas to use it. My cards will look so much nicer now.

Another year has gone by and I still haven't been up to Darien to see Maxine's headstone. It's just so hard to even think about going up there knowing she won't be there. Most of the time, I can avoid thinking about her being gone. I still miss her so much. Deleting her phone number from my phone was one of the hardest things I've ever done. It's been over two years now. I hope I can start smiling when I think about her, soon. One thing about it, I know she is home with the Lord.
