December is here, and my hubby and oldest son have birthdays this month. I CANNOT believe my oldest child will be 17! I remember SO clearly the moment the doctor laid him on me just after he was born and how surreal the moment felt. Now he is almost a man, and I am so proud of him, but I have a hard time imagining where all the time has gone...

MPM definitely keeps me on track. I actually look forward to Mondays!
Every time I look at my son's face I still see the screaming newly born baby boy. He's now 20 yrs old. They do grow up so quickly.
Your menu plan looks delicious.
Have a wonderful week!
