The Power of a Well Thought Out Gift

 The holidays are a time of reflection that allow us to return back to childhood to relive some of our most cherished memories. I remember being seven years old getting my very first Fisher Price toy camera from Santa. It not only affirmed that I had been good that year, but how did he know it was the perfect gift! That feeling of joy lives in my heart 30 years and two kids later. Holiday season can be an opportunity for busy families to unplug and spend time together, but the gift selection process often leaves us frantic and uncertain. In these times it is very important to remember two things.
First, gift giving is an extension of a life filled with gratitude, grateful for the people who have helped us get through another year, who believed in us, picked us up in times of worry and stood by us so we did not have to stand alone. The best gifts are always the ones that make you make us laugh out loud, warm our hearts and speak to life in all its quirky fleeting moments. Second, be kind to yourself and don’t forget you! You are creating memories and traditions with your family that last beyond the transaction. Give yourself the gift of exploring your local community for hidden treasures. Seek out social connections and experiences within our amazing community along with the thrill of chasing down the perfect gift. In the age of online shopping it has never been more convenient to buy gifts, but it has also never been more important to remember the power of a well thought out gift and the lasting memories and connections it can create for years to come.
