I came across this
post from
Simple Mom about keeping gift giving simple and focused. She made the point that more often than not our memories of Christmas are not of what gifts we received but "involve being with people, laughing, playing, crafting and baking, going to Christmas Eve church services, and just being together celebrating the season. That’s what your kids will value as adults, too."
good point. I have tried to give my kids presents that will promote fun times together. And I have been debating on giving craig some puzzles of Provo and Salt Lake to do together then turn into pictures for our room. I think this post just made me decide that it is a good idea, because it will create memories.
ReplyDeletei could state that because it isn't like craig is going to read any of this :)
