Hi there,
It's December and the Holidays are upon us.
This year, my kids told me that they didn't have fun memories for Christmas.
"Everything always stresses you out, Mom."
Goodness, that's hard to hear. But they aren't wrong. It was good to hear that I need to make some changes.
So this week, I made a list of potentially fun holiday activities for the kids to choose to do. The idea is that everyone can participate, but nobody is forcing anyone to do anything they don't want to do.
Our top picks were:
Christmas movie marathon
Decorating cookies
Christmas shopping in Excelsior or in Stillwater (but not both on the same day)
After we decorate the tree and bake some Christmas cookies, we will be ready for our holiday activities.
I'm actually excited for this month.
This hasn't always been the case, but this year, we will be ready.
And mama will have fun.
Here's a story about a not-so-fabulous Christmas. It's pretty cute.
