I miss the days of a house full of children or bigger children home for Christmas.
Such a testament to the kind of people you are that these kids want to be with you. You are obviously providing something for them that they value very highly. I remember when one of our youngest DD's friends spend Christmas eve and Christmas morning with us the year her parents were having problems. She still considers us her adopted parents. Bless you for your loving and giving hearts.

i was the koolaid mom who had all of the kids around playing ball in the back yard. yes at times they got on my last nerve, but i knew my kids friends and where and what they where doing. now they are all grown and off to live their lives, i wouldn't have changed it if i had a do-over. enjoy them, times have changed and not all are happy.
