Merry Christmas Everyone!!! We hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday!<\/p>\n
**Updated Message**<\/p>\n
I got the best gift ever this year.<\/p>\n
I had my children, my step children, my husband, his ex-wife and my ex husband for a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner made by the awesome, hardworking people at Boston Market.
\nOn plastic plates and with plastic forks we had our wonderful dinner together.\u00a0 Not an awkward moment anywhere.\u00a0 It felt PERFECTLY ‘right’.<\/p>\n
This year was all about learning about messages, finding how much the human spirit can handle, finding out how much love and learning could be found just sitting on the couch with a cup of a coffee and a new friend.<\/p>\n
I’m proud of our family. All of us. Tabitha, Dan, Me and Shaun…and most of all, our kids.<\/p>\n
May you grow up to be happy, healthy, well adjusted adults who can look back at this year as an example of how to treat other people, how to be a part of a family and treat people with the respect they deserve.<\/p>\n
No, we don’t have the same last names and 4 of us have ‘ex’ in front of our names…but we are a family.\u00a0 A very random and odd family!<\/p>\n
I hope your Christmas was as eye opening and wonderful as ours was.<\/p>\n
Love,
\nKristine and Shaun…and Co.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
