We have also had some cracker galleries this week – check out the beautiful Miranda Kerr pregnant photos, the must see looks of the week , the OMG  fashion looks of 2010 and of course the week in pictures

As we step into the long Christmas weekend let’s reflect on the week that we have just had.  Here is your chance to share with the Mamamia community – your best, your worst or whatever else is on your mind.

This Best and Worst Friday tradition is a true reflection of the Mamamia community, your kindness,  generosity, sympathy and insight never cease to amaze me.

BEST: I took the kids into the city to see the David Jones windows and we were meeting friends on the Town Hall steps. As we sat there in the bright morning sun, my eldest son complained that he’d forgotten his sunglasses. A homeless man sitting nearby overheard him and came over to give him his. “Merry Christmas” he said. I was incredibly moved and humbled. Such a special moment.

WORST: Disorganised in the most epic way.

On my mind: Thinking of all those who are going to be doing it tough on Christmas day. Many years ago, a couple of weeks after a late miscarriage, I had one of my most bleak Christmases ever. To everyone who is going to be spending their Christmas in a way they would never have wanted or chosen, we’re all thinking of you and sending you love and support. This too will pass.
