Ah, December. Don't we all love December?
I have made a decision to downsize my gift giving this year. I've read a few blogs where people are deciding to do this, and I do think it is important to remember 'what' we are celebrating.
My daughter and I are making a lot of gifts this year. Some small, some big, but all made with love. I think these types of gifts mean so much more when you've actually taken the time and effort to make them. Of course, some gifts will have to bought because I'm not that good of a seamstress. (to my grandmother's horror I'm sure)
I got one of my Christmas gifts early this year. My daughter did an amazing painting for me when she was at mother's this summer. They have matted and framed it. I love it. I'll have to take a picture of it and post it. It is those types of things that I love. Very intimate and personal. Only that person could have done that.
Cool stuff.
Hope everyone is having a great December so far. It's cold, cold, cold here in North Carolina. Finally...
