I hope your day works out well!😊 Maybe you could try writing down some ideas for Christmas/birthdays. Writing usually sorts my thoughts out.Makes my mind feel less cluttered&

Just an idea but have you considered getting all your children together and making your own Christmas tree decorations with them. You could make streamers and Christmas cards too. If you're ok at baking try gingerbread snowmen. You'll be cleaning up bits of glitter all month but I'm sure they'll have fun 😊 There's bound to be lots of ideas about this online. Good luck 🎄

Your Right! I always do this and it always works itself out..

People are already putting up Christmas decor... which is nice to get out of the way; but, I think it's way too early to show the stuff.

For sure probably why I get so anxious makes me think I'm running out of time

You know.. alot of people forget to communicate even with their kids so why not have a "meeting" with your kids and ask them "how can we make christmas a memory never to forget" or for birthdays be like "is there anything that you guys really want to do as an activity for your birthday" or how can We make your birthdays special?

Not what you're looking for?
