Moms Need Holiday Magic Too! 

Remember which balls are glass and which are plastic.  The glass shatter, and the plastic bounce.

Christy's Holiday Magic Tips:

  • Drink coffee in the morning by the light of the tree
  • Listen to good holiday music; here's my Spotify list. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7J2nnRjaK49WOU5bBJmSl0?si=7891688b5c33443a
  • Light Pine Tree scented candles
  • Buy marshmallows all month long and drink lots of hot chocolate
  • Look for Christmas Lights every chance possible.  Ooh and Ahh
  • Narrow down to your favorite cookies and try only one new one
  • Cuddle with Christmas Movies and books
  • Read a holiday-themed novel
  • Keep it simple so that you have joy!

 

Self-Care:  Set a goal to watch Christmas Movies and cuddle this month.  Christy set a big goal of 20 movies.  (Even the 30-minute ones count!) Bonus: Try out reading Christmas-themed novels; Christy is reading the Christmas Street Series by Elin Hilderbrandt.

 

Family Fun: Pick out a Christmas Song to be known for-- my two are Dominic the Christmas Donkey and I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas.  Sing them loudly and often as a family.

You are exactly the right mom for your kids.  I am so glad to know you.
