It's Christmas so we're overjoyed and wish to say........

[B.o.b.b.y...]

I read about all the stories of the problems with using Christmas and /or Santa Claus in advertising with various stores, products, etc. Well, I will admit that I am a Catholic who has enjoyed the holiday spirit from the early days of my life. It has always made me feel good and be in a festive spirit during this time of the season. I wish everyone a moment of joy, happiness and just being thankful for everything. I find hugh satisfaction in seeing my biological boys as well as my little adopted Russian boys, especially Bogdan who's been here 1 year, place ornaments on a Christmas tree and waiting for a magically Santa Claus to give them gifts on Xmas morning. For our family it's mostly a feeling of joy and dreams come true. My messages try so very hard not to be political in nature but I will never not wish people a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. The spirit of the season is our true message. I would never impose on anyone to agree with the issue of Christmas and Santa Claus. All I try to say is may you have peace, joy and hope for a better time. May your family be safe and find happiness in spite of all the horrible events that are thrown our way throughtout the year. May our wishes be granted and our children be safe. So with that said, I and my loving family wish all of you and your families a happy and Merry Christmas or whatever holiday and moment you may celebrate. A hugh hug from us to you....Bobby

Thank you for the holiday wishes. I also would like to wish the strat-o-matic ATG II community a very MERRY CHRISTMAS! May God bless each of you and your families this coming new year. Does anyone else have a 5 pack of teams on your Christmas wish list? :D

Bobby,
Well said - and Merry Christmas to everyone in the SOM community as well!!

Santa came early for me - in the form of two 5 pack teams (though it wasn't a surprise - me having the credit card and all...) :o :o :o

Looking forward to keeping up in the Alphabet 12 league challenge and some other leagues (Home Run Derby, etc) - looks like I'll be a very busy boy over the next 8-12 weeks or so.
