Note to myself: It's that time of the year where PRESENTS rule households. They have a chokehold on givers and receivers alike. Which is why it's extremely important to remind myself that being present is crucial.
It's time... Fun fact, I used to hate Halloween because of the scary costumes and the idea of ghosts and ghouls wandering around. But kids, with their infectious enthusiasm and adorable costumes, have really made it so much fun that it’s hard not to love it!
