A Mom’s 12 Days of Christmas

moms 12 days of christmas

It’s not really about what my true love gave to me this Christmas season but rather what my children, their school, their busy schedules, and the rest of my family gave to me.

With winter break rapidly approaching, this mom has:

12 dozen cookies to bake

11 things I’m probably forgetting

10 teacher gifts to buy

9Ā voluteer hours promised

8 nieces and nephews to shop for

7 school days til winter break

6 late nights due to sports practices

5 hundred loads of laundry to put away

4 guilt trips about our holiday plans

3 Christmas concerts

2 impossible to find gifts to find

and 1 Christmas tree to decorate

How to Remove Common Stains
Christmas Elf Craft + Reindeer Craft
