Thanksgiving acts as a catapult which throws my family into the holiday season with reckless abandon. Suddenly, life is much busier, to do lists are much longer, and time is much more limited.
Last winter there was some interesting and helpful conversations here at GNMParents about preparing for the holidays. Instead of you spending time sifting through our archives, I thought I’d save you a moment or two by offering this recap. There are some gems here worth revisiting.
