Our Wants May Not Be What We Need

While looking over the "What You Really Need" Baby List. I thought, "Wow, babies really don't need a whole lot a stuff."  Then the thought entered my mind, "Neither do your children, they need you."

What a humbling thought. How often had I told my toddler to wait when she asked, "Mommy, can you come play?" I had even done it while searching for the perfect Christmas gift for her.  

As Christmas time approaches, I hope we remember our children do not need mountains of gifts. Mostly they need our undivided, loving, attention.

I like how this video discuss joyfully being content with what we have.
