This year is an important one for me. This year is my baby's first Christmas. Amongst all of the hustle and bustle, I find myself wanting to slow time a little bit, as I suppose everyone does. Time, that cruel and unwavering entity. It never slows down. It never stops. Not for anyone. Certainly not for parents, who sometimes probably wish for it more than anyone else. And during the busy holiday season, where everything is always go, go, go, there is especially seemingly less time.
This is Baby's first Christmas, and I want everything to be perfect
You don't have to look far for the magic of Christmas
Just look into your baby's sweet face, with his eyes locked onto yours as you sing Christmas carols aloud. Baby's First Christmas isn't about making your hair turn gray. It's not about running around like a chicken with her head cut off. This first Christmas is about keeping it simple. Keeping it sweet. Keeping it all about love. And remembering that it really isn't just Baby's First Christmas. It's your first Christmas, too. So enjoy it. Every second.
