The Christmas Spirit is alive!

Okay so I was on my way to Walgreen's tonight when the Christmas spirit started. I was in the turn lane behind 2 other cars. A small sedan and a SUV. The light turns green and the sedan does not turn immediately so the SUV burns rubber and turns in front of her. We are all driving towards Walgreen's and in the parking lot the Christmas spirit starts. And here is how it is played out:
Father of the girl in sedan we'll call him dad #1
Father of small boy in SUV we'll call him dad #2
and me well we'll call me Trina lol

dad#1 "What is your problem My daughter is 16 and a student driver"
dad#2 "Maybe you should teach her how to drive"
Dad #1 " She is 16 you really want a driver like you on the streets"
Trina gets out of her car and walks briskly towards the two fathers
Trina "Guys it's the Holidays"
they continue to argue in front of the Walgreen's
Trina raises her voice "Guys It is Christmas, it's the holidays"
They continue to argue
Trina " Listen it is the Holidays and you have children here, now stop it don't do this in front of them!"
They pause walk away and a few other things are said to each other in the store.
I go about my business and see the young girl I tap her on her arm to see if she is okay. She replies yes.
Her father thanks me.
My hands are trembling i am so upset with the situation.
As I am checking out I am telling the cashier what happened. As I tell her that i was so upset i was almost in tears, by the way these two fathers acted towards each other in front of their children dad #2 walks by. I only hope he heard me ex specially the part were i said "What are they teaching their children".

I am proud of myself as a mother and person.
I hope they think about how they acted tonight when they are laying down to go to sleep. Was there really anything at Walgreen's that important?

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS,
HE LIVED ALL ALONE,
IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE MADE OF
PLASTER AND STONE.

I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY
WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE,
AND TO SEE JUST WHO
IN THIS HOME DID LIVE.

I LOOKED ALL ABOUT,
A STRANGE SIGHT I DID SEE,
NO TINSEL, NO PRESENTS,
NOT EVEN A TREE.

NO STOCKING BY MANTLE,
JUST BOOTS FILLED WITH SAND,
ON THE WALL HUNG PICTURES
OF FAR DISTANT LANDS.

WITH MEDALS AND BADGES,
AWARDS OF ALL KINDS,
A SOBER THOUGHT
CAME THROUGH MY MIND.

FOR THIS HOUSE WAS DIFFERENT,
IT WAS DARK AND DREARY,
I FOUND THE HOME OF A SOLDIER,
ONCE I COULD SEE CLEARLY.

THE SOLDIER LAY SLEEPING,
SILENT, ALONE,
CURLED UP ON THE FLOOR
IN THIS ONE BEDROOM HOME.

THE FACE WAS SO GENTLE,
THE ROOM IN SUCH DISORDER,
NOT HOW I PICTURED
A UNITED STATES SOLDIER.

WAS THIS THE HERO
OF WHOM I'D JUST READ?
CURLED UP ON A PONCHO,
THE FLOOR FOR A BED?

I REALIZED THE FAMILIES
THAT I SAW THIS NIGHT,
OWED THEIR LIVES TO THESE SOLDIERS
WHO WERE WILLING TO FIGHT.

SOON ROUND THE WORLD,
THE CHILDREN WOULD PLAY,
AND GROWNUPS WOULD CELEBRATE
A BRIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY.

THEY ALL ENJOYED FREEDOM
EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR,
BECAUSE OF THE SOLDIERS,
LIKE THE ONE LYING HERE.

I COULDN'T HELP WONDER
HOW MANY LAY ALONE,
ON A COLD CHRISTMAS EVE
IN A LAND FAR FROM HOME.

THE VERY THOUGHT
BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE,
I DROPPED TO MY KNEES
AND STARTED TO CRY.

THE SOLDIER AWAKENED
AND I HEARD A ROUGH VOICE,
'SANTA DON'T CRY,
THIS LIFE IS MY CHOICE;

I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM,
I DON'T ASK FOR MORE,
MY LIFE IS MY GOD,
MY COUNTRY, MY CORPS.'

THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER
AND DRIFTED TO SLEEP,
I COULDN'T CONTROL IT,
I CONTINUED TO WEEP.

I KEPT WATCH FOR HOURS,
SO SILENT AND STILL
AND WE BOTH SHIVERED
FROM THE COLD NIGHT'S CHILL.

I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE
ON THAT COLD, DARK, NIGHT,
THIS GUARDIAN OF HONOR
SO WILLING TO FIGHT.

THEN THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER,
WITH A VOICE SOFT AND PURE,
WHISPERED, 'CARRY ON SANTA,
IT'S CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL IS SECURE.'

ONE LOOK AT MY WATCH,
AND I KNEW HE WAS RIGHT.
'MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND,
AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT.'

My class!

Okay I do not get this Chance often But Tonight I got awesome news! I have one more week left in my medical terminology class. That is part of the good news! The really good news is no matter what I make on my test next week I will make an A. Finally an A in a college course. I honestly thought if I could just get a C in this class I would be happy. I am literally floating on air right now! So if I can do it with two kids bugging me 24/7 then anyone can do it! I have actually besides having my babies never been so proud of myself. So anyways I wanted to brag to everyone. So thank you for listening. Yeah!!!!!!!! I feel like a Rock Star right now!

My son and Father

So I was at my Parents this weekend looking through their photo albums. As I was flipping throw the pages I see a picture of my son. Well at first glance he sure did look like him, when in actuality it was my Dad's baby picture. So here is the proof Tyler looked like me as a baby and Dylan is my dad reincarnated!
