AMEN! I would have been so happy to give all (of course, there's only 5 of us + 2 grandbabies) Gift Cards...A special gift to the youngin's and be done with it... Very stressful this year for some reason. I enjoy the decorations here at home, and making things but not all the stress!. Hope all has a nice start to the New Year.

And it wasn't because their parents spent so much on them...they had family and friends at every turn giving them something. I wish we could get back to a much simpler time...remember when the tree was cut down in the woods and all the ornaments were handmade by the children?
