Ha ha Mom of 4: are we ever really ready?

I've made scrapbooks for 3 of my adult children and each one took months of my time and I'm just putting on the finishing touches this week. I don't even know what else to get them because they don't need anything. I guess it will be gift cards. At least I have the entire weekend to cook and bake coming up so I should be ready for Christmas Eve.

Happy planning to all of you to get things under control, but don't let yourself go crazy, it's supposed to be the best time of the year to be with family and yet we end up running around like maniacs.

Momof4, I LOVE that you made scrapbooks for your kids!! I seriously have all my shopping done by September...I really hate crowds and waiting in lines ha ha! I love gift cards, lots of people say they are impersonal but I think they are perfect! Especially when money is tight for some people, a nice dinner or free movie is really appreciated. I also feel that presents at Christmas are not things that people need, but special things we think they might like or would never get for themselves! Stay calm everyone and enjoy time with family and friends!!
