Christmas days before motherhood were filled with parties, reunions and work to attend to (like in 2006 when I had to spend Christmas Eve in the office to take calls!). Can’t complain. Those were among the most fun Christmas days of my life; not to mention the Christmas days I've had as a kid (Those were extremely fun and happy, too!).

I thank God for all the Christmas days I've had in my life, but really I was too preoccupied on most of those days to even remember it is truly His birthday we celebrate. I guess this is what Christmas had become for most young adults these days. Sad but true. Things changed when I became a mother. My perspective on many things changed including my view of Christmas. Christmas became all about my kid and family. Suddenly, Christmas is mean
