I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. As we turn the corner to the Christmas countdown please remember the reason for the season. Make sure you do not get lost in the hustle and bustle of the Christmas shopping and lose your Christmas spirit. Slow the pace down when needed. Say no if the demand cannot be done without love. Do not sacrifice your peace for someone else’s view of happiness. When the Christmas season is over what will you remember? What will your family remember? If it is important to you make time for it, if it is not let it go. The most important thing you can do for your family is for you to be happy.

Only 46 Days Until Christmas!

I found this article today on Mom Stuff Facebook page and I have to admit, I was shocked. Really only 45 days and so much to do?

Only 46 Days Until Christmas!

By Tired Mom Tésa

I know it seems early to be in the holiday spirit, but with two preschoolers whose birthday’s sandwich Christmas, the holidays are on their minds a lot this time of year. We had a few big, wet flurries the other day and it was all I could do not to sing, “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.” Kora & Logan immediately started asking, “How many days until my birthday?” and “How many days until Christmas?” So I got out the calendar and we started counting. http://networkedblogs.com/ahtqM

I do not like to start the Christmas season this early but with only 45 days left I am giving you some of our most popular links to help plan your gift giving. These links are for fun, creative and inexpensive gifts.

Remember This At Christmas Time

According to Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of the winter, usually late November to mid December. Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.

Therefore according to every historical rendition depicting Santa’s reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl. We should have known…

Only a woman would be able to pull a fat man in a red velvet suit all round the world all in one night and not get lost.

Have a very Merry Christmas girls!!! from the Mom-Team

Twelve Days of Christmas

the mom-team — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 21:39:20 +0000

One of our Mom-Stuff Team has posted her Twelve Days of Christmas for you. You can use it as is or any part of it as neighbor gifts. We would like to thank Amber for this contribution. We know you will love this. For more gift ideas we have added some more simple and inexpensive gifts in our Family Fun section titled Friend gifts.

Twelve Days of Christmas by Amber at www.mom-stuff.com

Last year I decided I wanted to bring some joy to a family’s life that I knew was struggling due to the troubled economy. Everybody needs a little bit of cheer all the time but especially at Christmas. I focused on family time to bring some joy to this family each evening. This is my version of the Twelve Days of Christmas.

My version of the 12 days of Christmas is very different than the original version. I took a variety of poems and printed them out on Christmas stationary. To use my format buy stationary with printing across the tip as in a header. I then bought or made an item that goes along with each poem I have listed. The items I included at the bottom of each poem. I put each item into a Christmas sack with the tag tied with curly ribbon. Each day I would deliver the poem and the item to my family’s house. My hope was to create a family bonding time for each of the 12 days before Christmas and add some Christmas JOY. I hope you will enjoy this and have a Merry Christmas.

On the 1st day of Christmas my true friend gave to me. This is what the tag read just change the 1st to 2nd or the pattern can be found by clicking here

The 12 poems are listed below by clicking on each one it will take you to the actual poem
