I got a wonderful evening with my wonderful in-laws. And no, that is not sarcasm. I really, really adore J-boy's family. There were plentiful gifts under the tree as well. A new pair of flannel pjs, two gift cards to my favorite video game store, the new Captain America movie on DVD, a winter cap, a pair of wool socks, and assorted odds and ends in a stocking. I also got to see the delight a nine-year-old got from the promised gift of time alone with her uncle and aunt. And you know, I think that was the best gift of all.
