Let it snow.

My guy loves the snow. Me, not so much. I love to have fun with him, though. So I embrace winter.

Christmas Show

Jalen's first Christmas show. We were so proud of him. He remembered all the words to the songs and did all of the motions. Grandma and Grandpa came up to see it. We were seated in the balcony and Jalen was looking all over for us and when he finally saw us, he waved and waved and was so excited to see us. I think Chris and I teared up a couple of times seeing how big our little guy is getting and how smart and wonderful he is. I caught a moment on camera that is blurry and I will have forever, but I'm not sharing it here. It was a look that melted my heart. A look that made me feel like the most special mom in the world.
