We had an enjoyable time at Christmas. The grandchildren seem to grow so fast. Each have their own special personality.
We tried to keep it under-extravaganza this year. I don't know, but it seemed less . I continually
put things back and said "NO". Me , saying no to something for my grandkids?Am I trying to buy them? Maybe trying to make them remember me? Cameron made me feel the best when he said, "you get the best gifts Grandma" (he got some extendable Batman wings).We've heard comments like "we want the children to know it's more about baby Jesus than gifts". Maybe it is time to focus better on the real reason for celebrating Christmas. It is fun to shop for them, and there are so many new things. We also hear of needs, and feel compelled to fill them. Abby said" well, this was a "medium" Christmas. Next year will be a small one. Truth told, they have everything, and don't need another Santa Claus.
