I have toys, a home, family and love. So this year I want to make you something. Tell me what you want this year and I’ll make it.”
Diana commented on the photo, saying, "When I found it, my heart melted, and I cried.
“Our favorite holiday is Christmas, and I’ve always tried to instil the true spirit of Christmas into each of my daughters.
“There are times that we doubt ourselves as parents. There are times that we wonder if we’re doing a good enough job raising good people.
