Good enough.

Made it through Christmas. Even the Emery family Christmas Eve tradition of sharing what we are grateful for this year. Always emotional because let's face it, we're a bunch of babies anyway. This year was especially tough. Not tough to find things to be thankful for but but because there is still so much even with our current trial. Boobfest 2012.

I made it through my first Christmas Eve/morning in 14 years without my kiddos. *phewf* Finished the home-crafted gifts by the skin of my teeth (No, really. I was actually walking out the door and getting them done)

There were no ER or doctor visits. No car accidents despite driving in the crazy snow. We got to spend time with a lot of family. Many that we don't see too often. :)No tears or terribly disappointed kids. Some were actually REALLY excited. *win*
Justin Bieber!!!!
Drew Brees!


I won't count it as a total success considering my neighbor gifts are still sitting at my house (early start for next year, right?) which isn't spotless. But it was good enough. 

I'm learning that Good enough is good enough. Perfect is impossible.
