She didn't buy a Christmas gift for Delaney. Instead, she gave me a bottle of chardonnay, a bag full of Hershey's Peanut Butter Kisses and a gift certificate redeemable for an evening of her babysitting services. She instructed me not to share the wine or chocolates with anyone, even Roger. When I asked why she said, "I read your blog. You're going to need them all to yourself."
It's mine

Oh my gosh, I love this. I'm going to completely steal this swell idea and give something similar to a few friends. So thanks for the idea! And happy Christmas to you and yours!
