I love Christmas time, however, I can only take so much of my house being out of sorts. Toys everywhere, which I am so grateful that my children are fortunate for receiving, however, now I have the task of finding everything a home.
Tonight I took everything down. I still have to put all of my pictures up and my things back up, but I have my little trinkets out, but other than that I have everything back to the way that I want it.
Christmas is such a wonderful time of the year, however, I have found that it has lost some of its meaning for me lately. I feel that I am constantly having to run here or there, and the pressure of making sure that everyone is happy is becoming more and more difficult. I want to love the holiday, to see what a wonderful time of year it is again, instead of stress, craziness and crabbiness.
To help put the focus back on the wonderful gift of giving I am setting a goal for myself of going through all of the toys that the boys no longer play with and put them together and give them away. I want the boys to come with me and see what it feels like to help other people.
