Twas the Day Before Christmas

Hurried, Harried, Irritable, Abrupt 
Do any of those words apply?  Believe me, I KNOW the routine.  We are down to the wire and we have enough on our list to keep a dozen people busy for a few hours. 
Would you please take a seat for a moment. 
Ask yourself what you want your children to remember about this precious holiday.   I dare say, 59 years later, I sincerely doubt that they will remember anything about something forgotten, unwrapped, unbaked etc etc etc  They WILL  remember a puzzle shared, a movie watched as a family, a time cuddling on the couch, all pitching in to make dinner, the smiles, the music and the atmosphere'  
Don't break your neck or anyone elses for that matter.....its not worth it.  Martha Stewart HAS that army working for her and a big fat bankroll to boot so don't even try to compete   Also Hallmark is a movie not reality.  
Reality is what you make it, your home, your family and the love felt walking through the door.
 Blessings on you this Christmas Season!
