i watched (500) days of summer yesterday.  i thought it was a pretty good movie.  although, i couldn't help but think through it that i am probably never going to meet anyone... i sure hope that i'm wrong

the last couple of years i've had a really hard time getting into the "spirit" of the holidays.  i've been so bah humbug about it but yet really want to make it exciting for my child and for me! it is very frustrating to know that i feel this way.  i hope that it will change once some family comes around because my brother is coming in from missouri.  also i'm mostly anticipating the birth of my niece or nephew!  i'm just so excited for that.

i also just can't help but think that part of it is that i've been so single the last couple of years and just wouldn't mind sharing the holidays with someone else special.  i really do love the holidays.  i'm really going to try to make this holiday about Christ for my child because he is now old enough to kind of at least understand a little bit.  anyway.  i hope that i can break this 3-year funk through the holidays and make this one a special one for my little family.  Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays!  hope that your is magical.
