I have been sharing a lot of what I love about Christmas but there are a few things that I don't love.I hate that I feel pressured to make everything perfect when I am so imperfect. I am working really hard this year to take  a breath and enjoy my family and home as it is, even if it doesn't look like the covers of the  "Southern Living" books on my mother's coffee table. I am trying to accept that my attempts at caroling, crafts, and cookies will likely descend into bickering. And the cookies will probably be burnt.I also don't love that my children are inundated on so many sides by new, shiny things that make them want EVERYTHING for Christmas. I don't love that I allow this to make me feel less than successful when I can't give them everything. Or even almost everything. I am working on accepting that the something I can give them may be everything to them. Finally, the Christmas Shoes song - What is up with that song? My kids and I are happily singing along to Jingle Bell Rock or Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and then this song about a poverty stricken little boy buying shoes for his dying mom comes on. I can't get the radio off fast enough. I can't work on that, thank you very much sad country crooners!But mostly, I love, Love, LOVE the holidays. I hope you and yours have a safe and happy one!But for those of you wishing to destroy every bit of holiday happiness you may have, I have shared the song:Horrible, right?
