Typically, we find some sort of cultural engagement, or two, to attend during the Christmas season. Some years, it's been a play at the Children's Theater, some years, it's the tree lighting with live music in Uptown. One year, we had the first grader's holiday concert as well as a holiday family dance at her school.
This year, other than church programs, we haven't scheduled anything particularly cultured. I had already decided that we needed to cut back a little somewhere because between the parties and pageants and programs, we tend to end up with few nights at home during the month of December. Even scaling back, we have been on the go enough. And I really want to lose a little of that rushed feeling.
So, we will attend concerts and plays again, I'm sure, and I am hoping that we can make a family trip in the next few days to see the singing bears we love so much, but for this year, we didn't try to cram in more and instead have been quite content with a little less hurrying around and a little more snuggle time.
