Christmas

I don't believe in Christmas, it's pretty man-made like most other holidays and devalues original religious purposes. But oh well....Merry Christmas everyone!! :)

In the future I will not follow in the tradition of Christmas for my children. Gifts and presents are fun but I am not waiting until Dec 25th just to get something nice for someone or to show how much I appreciate them. My children will establish Christmas as the day mommy wears her pjs all day, stays home, cooks 3 meals with 2 snacks, plays games all day, jokes with daddy, doesn't answer her cell phone, watches a marathon of movies, have a snowball fight and go sledding, and doesn't go to sleep until after everyone else is sound asleep. My household will know Christmas to be the best day of the year not because of presents/gifts but because me and my husband and children are having fun just being us all day together as a family. If my children want presents they will get them randomly throughout the year but never on Dec 25th, Christmas doesn't mean presents and it won't mean that when I'm older either. I can't wait to have a family and start my own traditions. I don't believe in Christmas but I do believe in a happy family.
