My shopping

I have officially begun my Christmas shopping. Although it will be hard to maintain my Christmas spirit this year, I know I will get through the season and enjoy it the best I can if I try to be organized, have a plan and have some fun things to look forward to.

Each year I try and think how to approach my shopping.....should I take care of one kid at a time, should I try to get one thing for each kid at a time, should I spend the same amount on each.......usually i just throw caution to the wind and it always works out perfect. My "plan" will be that this year will be no different. I am always amazed that I pull it off each year. When I look back over my life in years to come, when my kids are grown and no one is truly waiting for Santa anymore, I will know that making Christmas Magic happen over and over for 5 kids will be one of my life's greatest accomplishments!!!
