I LOVE getting ready for Christmas! I love making and giving presents, Christmas music, getting together with friends and family, baking yummy things, and decorating for the season.
Ahhhh, tradition!
Lucky for me, Little Man feels the same way about this time of year. Last year he watched the Thanksgiving Day parade on TV for the first time...so he had to do that again this year. "It's a tradition" as he told me very seriously during my stuffing prep.
This year, I have been looking at some books for starting some new traditions at our home. One that is on my must buy list is an old classic by Pearl S. Buck. How I ever missed this one for all these years, I do not know but I'm changing that this Christmas.
From the reviews that I have read about the book, it really helps to cut away the commercialism of Christmas and focuses on the giving aspects (rather than the getting part).
Rob wants to get his father something special for Christmas this year --
something that shows how much he really loves him. But it's Christmas Eve, and
he doesn't have much money to spend. What could he possibly get? Suddenly, Rob
thinks of the best gift of all...
