When did the magic of Christmas disappear? For the past couple of years Christmas has become more stressful than magical. I blame growing up. Now instead of waiting patiently in line to see Santa with my wish list in hand, I wait not so patiently in line to see a cash register with my credit card in hand. Christmas has become a stress-filled holiday that can't be enjoyed anymore because I am too worried about what to buy my family and friends and how I am going to afford it.
This weekend I helped with Breakfast with Santa. It is an event for kids in Carrollton where they come and eat breakfast and get their picture taken with Santa. They also get to make several art projects and decorate cupcakes. These kids where so excited that it was getting close to Christmas and were telling me all about what presents they wanted. I remember getting that excited when I was a little kid. I kind of miss those days right now.
Definitely need to remember to take a breath this holiday season and not worry so much about what to give people or how much money I'm spending.
