This past weekend

This past weekend was a very good weekend. I finished up all xmas shopping, wrapped everything and put up the tree. I put lights all around the house(inside) and it was great. I got in the xmas mood. The holiday moved me in so many ways. I stopped and really thought about what it means. I wish I could get my children to feel the same way. I worry that all they see is the material things and in some way that is just as much as my fault as it is their's. I gave them a lot and should have given less and more on the holiday meaning itself. I am hoping to change this as time moves on. It makes me feel lonely too. I mean no one to share the special moments with. To take pleasure in the simple and wonderful things that happen around us. Does anyone care?
