I don't want to forget

Christmas 2010:
Isobel, completely un-coached, gave her brother a big hug and a sincere thank you for the doll he gave her.
Everett's favorites are known by his sister: $10 and his favorite drink.
How well the kids understand dad: wood shop and coffee gift certificates.
I got to see one of my brothers! Last time I saw him it was before Isobel was born. He is two years older than me, has a job of his dreams and a new love.
My family sent me on a number scavenger hunt for a beautiful necklace.
Breakfast in Seattle. A first.
The large box of karate gear that made the kid's jaws drop.
Remembering that Christmas gives us our savior! A new life in Him and a new year for it.
