The best gift I ever gave....Gift giving is something that I struggle with every year. I am always anxious that my gift will not be received well and that I will disappoint the recipient. This year I am taking the pressure off me and shifting the responsibility to my daughter. Hey, she's 4 1/2 months old, time she does something around here (except be the cutest thing ever). All of our gifts this year are from Maggie and although they haven't received the gifts yet, I know that everyone will adore them. Now again, she's only four months old, so we're not talking about macaroni frames or Popsicle stick ornaments. Mommy and Daddy have picked each gift especially with the people in mind, specifically in relation to the special relationship that they have with Mags. And what could be better? Christmas should be a time of family and gratitude for that family, and I would have to say that our little bundle of joy has done wonders for our family. It has brought us closer and helped us to connect in a way that nothing else could.

As for me, I know that I have received the greatest gift there is to receive in this little girl and I am so glad that I am able to share in the wonder of her. I know that it is not as often as most of my family would like, but we try our hardest to make the miles seem less with constant contact. And hopefully the small gifts that we give this Christmas will help everyone to feel like we aren't that far apart and remind them that as a family we are always joined at the heart.
