Merry Christmas...here at the Barker residence we don't really like celebrating Christmas...I think that it has a lot to do with both being the youngest in our families and I know most of mine has to be working retail for seven years..so this is our tree and our presents sit on the floor...we have decided that Molly gets three presents..(cause Jesus only got three presents) and to teach Molly the true meaning of Christmas...what is that you ask?? We'll to me it is a time to be spent with family and being kind to others...not giving presents and spoiling those that do not need all there given...and always to remember the death (birth..duh Annette) of Jesus...so in the light of all this we have a small tree...only to remind us of what is truly important this time of year..scrooge..you say??..maybe...Friday, December 7, 2007

I, unfortunately am the opposite. I can't help myself when it comes to buying my girls anything and everything. I know its probably not good for them, and I will probably be the sucker mom that gives into buying them toys. I know that that isn't what christmas is about and I will be sure to teach them its about family and giving, not receiving.
