My children were INDULGED at Christmas...well, "Christmases" to be exact. There are four sets of grandparents in our family. FOUR! (And my parents have been married 37 years!) It was so bad last year that my husband and I didn't buy our kids ANYTHING for Christmas this year! My house (and pantry) were already crawling with toys. Is there a cycle for toys that I don't know about? Is there a way to clean, organize, and store running water? My three year old asked me today why our Christmas tree was still up. After checking the calendar to make sure I hadn't missed Valentine's Day, I told her that Mommy can't play Chutes and Ladders and take down the tree at the same time. (She later took such a big bite of cheeseburger that she threw up.)
I really do love Christmas.

Words from Evander's wife---
Four words, girlfriend: Clear out the clutter (sound familiar?)! Let the kids keep their books and board games, and then one basket of toys each. Then donate donate donate:
