And You Will Have Kids

I loved to decorate for Christmas in my “BK” years.  You know, before kids.  I could put out all of the delicate and expensive decorations during that time in my life.  Five children later, things have changed.

I remember laughing when my friends who had children told me that I’d be putting away the delicate and expensive things until my children were teens. In my “BK” years, I was so sure that my children would be different than other people’s children. I am here to confess that my kids aren’t any different than my friend’s children and that my life has changed due to the fact that I have kids.
