We are low on money this season, but we are drowning in stuff from past years and seasons. So I know it sounds trite, but I would like continued health for my family!
That my 4 year old son truly understands what Christmas is about. If not, that he has a lot of fun. That my newborn son continues to be healthy. Finally that my husband and I find some time to grow our marriage.
To see all of my children, 3 are adults on their own, living in abundance and not lack, making wise choices for their lives an in a position to bless others.
A day of silence in bed by myself...well actually NO EVEN bigger if this is a dream... A card with a coupon that said "A day for yourself".
A night in a hotel in Manhattan all by myself. I would first go shopping ALL DAY...taking my time. Go back to the hotel, have a spa treatment(thinking Mandarin Oriental) go back to the room shower up, have husband meet me for dinner with friends then back to hotel.
My DH already bought and gave me my present. The iPhone. I love it.
Capoeira membership for a year, but that will be for later. This Christmas my gift is an unexpected flight for myself and my son to see my parents and my friends in Toronto.
I have already received it. I just wanted to be home for Christmas. For 20 years, my husband and I have alternated spending Christmas day with our families. This year, I'm going to wake up in my own bed. I am so looking forward to that.
It's weird for me anymore. I often find myself wanting things for my daughter and nothing for me. I have no idea what to even suggest someone to get for me other than gift cards so I can spend them on my daughter haha. I like shoes, but I'm too picky about my shoes. I'd have to try them on and everything.
We're only doing a few small gifts for each other this year and I know I will help my husband save hours of stress if I told him what it is that I really wanted. So I'm thinking about it -- and curious what it is for you guys.

The untangible - my preemie daughter home. She's in the hospital & we don't think she'll be out until around the 1st. Hoping for a Christmas miracle!
