I think as moms we put so much pressure on ourselves to make life magical and exciting for our kiddos. I feel this way especially around the holidays. But something we learn from children is that life itself is magical!

You don’t have to make the best, or the biggest snowman. Just getting outside in the snow, throwing snow balls, or letting them help you shovel the snow can be a lot of fun. You don’t have to make the fanciest cookies or crafts, just letting them help you cook breakfast is a great way to spend quality time.

One of my favorite things about motherhood is seeing the magic through my child’s eyes. It’s so meaningful to them that you’re just there. If being a mom has taught me anything, it’s that love is simple
