Another advantage of children is reliving your life through them. I read my daughter's post about being irresistably overcome with the spirit of Christmas and obtaining a tree, decorations and an extra sock with an "M" for the apartment. The way she described her husband's smile as he walked in and saw her efforts struck a cord. The admission that she hadn't felt this way for a long time about the holiday provided an "Oh yes, I remember" moment for me as well. The spirit she feels, of course, is love and belonging and knowing this is her place - his and hers. Enjoy.
I remember our first small apartment and our first little tree all in blue ornaments. We didn't have very much but we had it all....
