Hey Dave, good to see you here! Being in the moments of the season - that's just a great thought. And one I'll try to embrace, as well. And you're giving your kids the best gift - you! That's very cool! Have a very wonderful and happy Christmas, Dave - you and your whole family!! Lances last blog post..Sunday Thought For The Day

Nice post! I especially like this thought: "There is not much that can’t be fixed by the careful application of personal attention, and who better to give it than someone not tied to a rigid agenda and steeped in the ludicrous expectations of a perfect Christmas Holiday?" Expectations and general perfectionism will get you every time, won't they? How wonderful that you're figuring these things out when your kids are young, and can directly benefit from what you've learned. Kristin T.s last blog post..I’ll take a side of sadness with my cheer

To paraphrase Alexander Graham Bell; when one door closes, another opens…the trick is to look through the open door, rather than stare longingly at the closed…. I can see that you have walked through that door Dave. Your kids will remember the gift of time far over any gadget. Best of the season to all!
