The Power of a Christmas List

Hubby banned me from creating a Christmas list this year.  What a Grinch!  A Scrooge!  Grrrr!   For some reason, he is scared of my lists.

Oh, and I’m talking about my PERSONAL list, not one for the kids.  It is the list of things that Mama wants that terrifies him, and I really can’t understand why.

Well, maybe I get it a little.  There were more than just a few things, from last year’s list, that I ended up getting.   That original list was a guest post for The Mom Jen’s blog, Cheaper than Therapy.  Then, because I REALLY wanted to make sure Hubby (ummmmm) SANTA saw my list, I double posted it here.  Wanted to cover all my bases, because he’s a typical man and doesn’t listen to the hints I give him.  But, like a very GOOD husband, he reads my blog.  That’s right, he does.  It’s ok to be jealous.

It worked.

Let’s review, shall we?

Hmmm . . . can you see why he might be a little intimidated of my wishes?  We were NOT planning on having a second child last year.  I WANTED one, but I just “knew” that it wasn’t in God’s plan since we weren’t able to afford a second adoption.  Yep, I knew what God had planned. . . .and, apparently, He reads my blog too and decided I needed a little lesson.

Hence. . . .Mr. Boy was fashioned and formed that same December.


And, I am now banned from creating another wish list.

He’s so mean.
