It’s already August! Only four more months till Christmas. Wow! I have to start planning. We’re very blessed that DS is very content and doesn’t really ask for much. And I really don’t want to raise them thinking that Christmas and birthdays are about getting presents. I think we’ll start a few family traditions, something that he and his sister can always look forward to every year. Hopefully that will make Christmas much more special to them.
Here are a few ideas I’m thinking about starting this year and hopefully we can keep doing every year:
1) Creating our own signature Hot Cocoa. I’m thinking of grinding some candy canes and then mixing them with some cocoa mix and serving them on Christmas eve.
2) Having a special Christmas breakfast, maybe with sandwiches or waffles that are either decorated or shaped in Christmas theme.
3) Setting up some Christmas stockings, filled with some inexpensive items that can keep the children busy.
4) Putting on a special movie on Christmas morning, something DS and DD will enjoy.
5) Taking silly Christmas day photos.
If you have any ideas you’d like to share, feel free to comment below.
