"It's coming down pretty hard huh?" The girls nod and I sigh "I guess No school huh?"

"Our honeymoon plans are ruined!" Janine pouts "We were gonna do something wonderful today!"

"Well the girls are on Christmas break anyways" Shelby cringes when she's met with some glares "Well some of the girls are on Christmas break"

"You know I have a game" A empty water bottle is sat down on the coffee table "This will spin and if it lands on you...you have to give a Christmas story or a reason you have a goal! No escapes!"

"That sounds like a good game Sam" The girls crawl over and we all sit so runs the table "Why don't you start?"

She nods and spins the bottle. It spins for a bit before landing on Shelby. Her eyes go wide and I can see the thoughts going. Which is she gonna choose?

"I know someone here wants to know about Beths first Christmas" Lucy nods shyly "Well it was a very fun time..she was very cranky though"

-Beths first Christmas-Shelby pov-
"Beth come on!" I look down at the little girl that's still crying "I've fed you and everything! I don't know what else to do...This is why I should not have contacted Rachel! I am not a good mom!"

Beth whining keeps going and I start to cry. I was so stupid to do this. Why would I think I could be a mom? I mean it was a dumb thing to do!

I stop crying when I hear a giggle. I look up confused and see Beth smiling. I also notice a photo in her hand. I lay down to see who's in it.

I smile when I see who's in it. It's a baby Rachel dressed up. She's got a star on her onesie. Beth giggles again and I smile wider. She's such a perfect little girl.

"I will raise you to prove I can be a mom" I pick her up and take her over to the Christmas tree "I think you're ready to finally open up your presents with me"

The rest of the day was spent with laughter. It was a good first Christmas I think.

-Current time-Judy pov-
"It made me want to come back for Rachel" Shelby smiles "I didn't think it would ever bring us to this at all"

"Great story" Shelby smiles and I point to the bottle "Your spin shelb"

She nods and spins it "This is a good game" We all nod in agreement as the bottle stops "Looks like it's Sam"

"I've not had too many good Christmas's" Sam looks at the bottle "But I've got one goal..Grace doesn't like me talking about it though"

"What is it?" Grace leans into Sam with a pout "What?"

"I wanna be a female Sergeant in the army" Sam smiles "I think it would be a great thing! Show women can do anything a man can! Add on top of it that I'm a lesbian woman! So many people would have fits and I'd love overcoming it"

"Well we support you in everything" Sams smile falters "We just hope you come back home ok? Do everything in your power to make it back"

"Of course" Sam spins the bottle "Home will always be my goal! If I don't end up doing that I'll be a teacher"

"I will admit I like that idea better" The bottle stops and I see it's at me "Well I have a Christmas story! It takes place a long while ago!"

-Judys 13th Christmas-
"Mommy!" I smile and look up at my mom "Can I do the traditional song?"

"I think that would be good" Mom leads me to my bedroom and closes the door "Don't disturb the guests!"

I sigh and sit at my piano. I hear the song begin downstairs and begin to cry. I'm never allowed to sing to them. I didn't even get a gift tonight.
