Don't File a Missing Persons Report Yet

Ok - I have little excuse why I didn't blog for ALL of December, but, alas, you're dealing with Terralyn here. Not that there hasn't been lots going on. Thanksgiving was fun - I went to my sister Tamara's house. I finally got some time to chill with my best sis all by myself - well, if you don't count the herd of children always gathering around. And my totally awesome brother was home from the Peace core for most of the month of December. That rocked. I actually morphed into some kind of uber-mom, making cookies, and being all domesticated. I even bought a mixer! Mariah got the video IPOD she really wanted for Christmas, and I don't think she even remembers anything else. Thanks to our friend D.J. - there's no way I could've gotten that thing for her! My sister has 5 kids, and they were all a riot. Delaine and Dominique were so animated, and Samara was cute and gaseous all at once. Tommy and Tiffany are just like Mariah, trying to be 18 when they're 13 and 14. Oh, well, Tiffany just turned 14 and Tommy will be 15 at the end of the month. Mariah will catch up in February! I've also got to spend some time with my best girl, Mona. We are karoake queens! She came with me to my annual office party and we TOTALLY rocked the house. I liked the gift she got me for Christmas so well that I cried on the spot. I'm so cute :> Mariah is growing up so fast....I'm actually in the process of putting the brakes on her now. She is doing some tutoring right now to help her with her grades. The poor thing has Algebra to deal with already....and not exactly a mathmetician at home to help her! Keep her in your prayers, she's gonna need it :)
