My Christmas present

Since our town is a small remote town with only fly in abilities for most of the year - currently you could travel on the winter road - an ice road only open from 8pm to 8 am - shopping is not readily available. When we moved here with our new born baby we were furnitureless. Luckily this is such a generous town people are always willing and ready to share their extras. By the time I got home from the hospital we had a table and chairs, a couch, a recliner, and a mattress. My generous mother felt that since we are in our 30s and we have children we should have a grown up bed. She ordered through Sears for Christmas 2005 a frame for the bed. The feeling of being up off the floor was amazing, I felt like such a grown up. This year we are further into our 30s, the parents of 2 and for Christmas 2007 we received a headboard. It makes the room look so grown up! Thanks mom and dad.
