<p>We have to repeat Susan!! It is also our first year and what fun!!! We race to the mailbox but wait until we are all together to open them. It has brought my family closer. My Mom has lived with us for the last two years after my Dads death. At the age of 63, during that time she has had two strokes, open heart surgery, vein replacements and a leg amputation. It has been very difficult. Her Christmas spirit has been lost, especially with my Dad not being here. So, to see her excitement and pure joy at seeing the cards come in every day has truly given me hope. I wish I had joined the full list, but definately next year. Thanks to everyone who has sent a card....they have put a huge smile on us all!!!<br>
