Many times this holiday season I have found myself worrying about preparing to have a perfect day. I worry my children will feel disappointed on Christmas morning if I screw something up.
I’ve decided to give up the notion of holiday perfection, accept the flaws, and simply enjoy the time with the people I care about most.
Step back. Be thankful. Live in and enjoy the moment. No one will remember all the presents, exactly what the decorations are, or any of the other fine details you are currently focused on. They will remember your presence.
