We went to a live nativity the other night. It was great. I got to stop for an hour and think about the true meaning of Christmas. Yea, it's cliche. But it's true. I've decided that Christmas for moms can be so stressful. I want everything done, clean, presents perfect. You know how it is, Christmas cards, neighborhood gifts, kids gifts, Christmas dinner, decorating, cleaning, teacher gifts etc. But that's ok, I love it all. The key is just to remind myself that. I have a tendency to think- "I'm so stressed, I have to hurry and get this done!"- then I tell myself- "Hey, I love doing this- it's Christmas!" And then I smile and enjoy the moment. And then Ellie knees Kyle in the back dancing to Christmas songs. But back to the nativity.
