The Rusty Pearl

Was thinking today about some Christmas memories when I was a child. Unfortunately My Mom @ Dad were  not married all my childhood life. However they remained friends and they have helped me to create some great memories growing up.. One time my Dad (owned a construction company) He rained a crew out on a construction site and then LOW and behold his whole crerw showed up at my house when I was little and built me (IN ONE DAY ) a HUGE play house with windows and a little porch.. I remember staring at them working in the RAIN.. My dad never stopped .

On to CHRISTMAS........... One Christmas eve ...(it was late) and my dad came running in wake up wake up I think I saw Santa and his SLEIGH down the street !!! I put on my slippers and I remember seeing my mom on this OLIVE couch (WHY I remember that I dont know) I said lets take MAMMA and my dad said NO let her sleep .. WE were off to an adventure... We drove up and down every single street. HE pulled over to this yard and said I think I see Reindeer Tracks in this yard get out lets take a look!!! ( I just remember my heart beating so LOUD) I felt that tracks (and was so excited.) He said We better get home .. I think he is on his way to our house !!! OMGOSH I was so excited that I could hardly stand it ... We got home and BAM !!!!! My mom slept thru the whole thing.. I woke her up and said YOU didnt see Santa he was here HE was here .. I had a pink gown on (funny what you remember) .... She was brite eyed and said NO ..........I cant believe I missed him.. She said LOOK he ate the cookies .............I ran over and checked it out... THINKING HE ATE MY COOKIES ..............WOW... There were teddy bears and a fake piano.. I started pounding and making music and couldnt remember what I would play first . I loved everything. I was so HAPPY they were Happy .. TO THIS DAY I remember their faces that DAY .. (MY dad couldnt ever wait till Christmas Morning ... ) .........Hands down my favorite Christmas as a little girl ...
