The True Meaning of Christmas

I had this heart-warming conversation with my 9-year-old yesterday:

Sparky: How come we only get three presents for Christmas?

Me: We love to give you kids gifts but that's not what the focus is. Christmas isn't about what you can get. We celebrate by spending time with the people we love and remembering the real reason for Christmas.

Sparky: (dramatic sigh) I know the meaning of Christmas! It's all about giving...so how come you're only giving us three presents?

Tis the season to be greedy.
