I should not forget to mention that since my November blog it has also been Cale's birthday and I now have one year left in my twenties. Ruby, our beloved pup, shares her birthday with Baby Jesus. Maybe one day Ruby we'll save us all from a burning fire and December 25th will become much more about her than about Christmas. Not that it is about Christmas now. I hope I am not offending anyone by saying so but our family is part of the 15% of Americans that do not have a religious affiliation (and prefer to keep it that way). Still we love Christmas... mostly we love the cold and snow and we all have birthdays in December. One day Ruby will save us all.
