It's only one day after Christmas and I'm already thinking of next Christmas. The life of a mom, right?
We will be making some changes, making Christmas more simple next year. Doing more for others, expecting less for ourselves. It sounds great, but it won't be great until it is more than just words on a blog.
Something an online friend told me about years ago has stuck with me. She buys her kids only 4 presents, plus stockings. A want, a need, a wear, a read. That's it. Can it be that simple? I think it can. It should. And it will be.
Now I really want to fast forward to see how you chose the presents - which of the "wants" you'd choose, for instance. Would something "to wear" be something they want but sort of need etc :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful idea and I think you can do it. You are an inspiration to others in many areas, so that might inspire others to follow your example.
