I think we have 40 more days until Christmas!! Okay people don't panic that is still a lot of time to go shopping, wrap gifts, decorate, bake, plan Christmas dinner, go caroling, volunteer at the school's Christmas program, donate to toys for tots, find a new hiding space for the gifts since the kids figured out where they were last year and you had to lie and say those were for other kids.... Okay people I lied PANIC PANIC PANIC!! Only teasing lol, take a deep breather and remember what the holidays are really about, celebrating the birth of Jesus!!
Now I am going to sound like a bit of a hypercritical here, because yes I know the true meaning of Christmas.... But I am still that mom that loves seeing her kids face light up come Christmas morning. I put a lot of love and time into their gifts. That is why I put together this gift guide each year, to hopefully give other parents ideas on what to get their loved ones.
