 When I hear someone say they hate Christmas, I almost feel bad for them. I have so many fond memories of past Christmases that I can't wait to share with my child. One memory in particular always makes me giggle to myself. When I was a kid I was always so excited to find out what gifts I got for Christmas that I never waited until Christmas Day to open my gifts. When I was alone I would tear off an inconspicuous piece of wrapping paper so I could get a sneak peak at my gifts. Awful, right? What can I say? I was a curious and impatient child. My family was also big on decorating the Christmas tree. It was an event in our house. Every year my mother would display our newly handmade ornaments we made along with our past creations on the tree, and every year we would argue about putting too many ornaments on the tree. When I was in my own home I remember thinking my tree never looked quite right with all the new, store-bought ornaments, but now that I have a child of my own we are slowly getting there. I still marvel at my mother's tree and enjoy the memories it brings. It's a great tradition I now get to enjoy with my family.Christmas isn't just about giving and receiving gifts. It's about family, friends, and loved ones. Don't just give gifts because that's what you've been taught to do. Give gifts to celebrate your family, your friends, and your loved ones. Give gifts to celebrate life and love. This is the time to show appreciation to those who are never told they are appreciated. This is the time to give forgiveness to those you've held unyielding grudges against. This is the time to let someone you may have lost touch with during the year know they are not forgotten. This is the time to give to the less fortunate. Christmas is the perfect time to teach children that its always better to give than to receive. It's the perfect time to make memories that will last a lifetime. It's a time to be at peace and be happy.  No one can deny the enjoyment of giving the perfect gift, but the frustration of coming up with the idea then having to go out and fight with the holiday crowds and trying to find the time to wrap all the gifts can cause stress.
