What's your favorite Christmas memory? One of mine is baking cookies with my Mom. Do you think she thought that we were making a lifetime of memories? Probably not. Like any Mother, she was busy. With everything that Moms do for us, how could she not be overwhelmed? Christmas is such a busy time of the year that it's easy to get caught up in the rush and miss the really important things. I hope this year that you take the time to make a special memory with your little ones.
