Things I'm Forgiving this Season:
- The way our tree only has ornaments on the front.
- That it's leaning due to lack of ornament distribution.
- Decoration boxes yet to be put away.
- Not setting all the nativity sets out.
- How our front yard decoration is one red lamppost light.
- That our house pales next to our neighbor's decorations.
- How I'm not purchasing many gifts.
- That I'm creating gifts instead.
- How I used to view this season.
- The way I've broken all my rules on how to do Christmas.
What are you forgiving this season?
I'm forgiving that I have yet to do any preparation for the holiday even though it's less than a week away!

YES! *applauds* Awesome, Melissa. :D
Deleteoh that's nice, good thoughts. I'm sure I've got loads I could forgive! Heather x
ReplyDeleteDon't we all. :D
DeleteI love homemade gifts, they have so much thought in them! And sometimes change is a good thing, I love that every Christmas is different!
ReplyDeleteOh Kate, I love that image "every Christmas is different". Never thought of it quite that way.
DeleteWe only put the lights on the front of the tree, as well as the ornaments. Cute post!

Yay! We can be front-of-the-tree buddies. That's the part you see anyways, right? :D
DeleteGreat list! I'm forgiving myself for not making a ton of holiday cookies (because I'm trying to get fit and know I could not resist!)
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Holly! Sounds like you're being gracious to yourself by keeping away temptation. I too, find it hard to resist sweets!
DeleteLove this list! Ha...it's good that your so forgiving!
ReplyDeleteHa, yes it is. :D
DeleteThis year, I have nothing to forgive. Nature has treated me well.
ReplyDeleteKudos, JJ! :)
DeleteWonderful list! Sounds very accepting and free of perfection. I'm forgiving myself for not being more gentle and kind to myself and always putting others first instead. Going to make lots of changes in 2013!
ReplyDeleteLove that, Jamie! And I can't wait to see what 2013 brings you.
DeleteWhat a beautiful reminder that the deepest beauty is found in the ordinary, lopsided parts of our life. Thank you. XO
ReplyDeleteIt truly is, isn't it? You're so welcome. :)
DeleteMerry Christmas my friend! I love this list! I am shifting Christmas into something simpler with less pressure and chaos. I miss you!! Your new hair rocks!
