Christmas wishes

Today we've been making Christmas cards for my son's classmates and I spent a long time pondering the message to write in them. I ended up with "Have a Simply Lovely Christmas", my sentiment is that we should all have a wonderful Christmas and also a Simple one.... so hard with kids who are demanding all the "stuff" to help them keep up with their peers at school. I have to admit to having sucumbed to buying some of the plastic trash I would in many ways prefer not to; I'm uncomfortable with how much I bought for the boys, however as I was doing the shopping there were people around me with trolley loads of the stuff - I only hope they have huge extended families and the trolley load is not intended for one or two kids.
