Excitement of Christmas

I LOVE Christmas, everything about it. Decorating the house, giving presents, getting presents, good company, good food, whats not to love?

This was not so true last Christmas. Last Christmas was supposed to be Albury's first Christmas, it was supposed to be exciting for a whole other reason. I was supposed to fulfill my life long dream of becoming Santa, dressing my baby up in a gorgeous Christmas outfit, having everyone adoring her. But no, she wasn't there.

The problem was I didn't talk about how sad I was, I didn't think I was aloud to be, as I was 6 months pregnant with Logan at the time. How can I be so sad when I have my son growing in my belly? Well simple, because I didn't have my baby girl in my arms.

It broke my heart to hear the words, "There are no babies this year, how boring!" Knowing that Albury would have filled that void, SHOULD have filled it. It was even hard opening presents for Logan, because I kept thinking how they could have been hers.

Yes Christmas was hard last year, but the time with my family was enough to get me through it with a real smile on my face. Because that's what family does, without even knowing it, they get you through the toughest times in your life.
