COT:
You’ve got enough.
Right about now my wife always asks if we have enough gifts for the kids. I remind her of how we could probably wrap some old toys and they wouldn’t notice.
You’ve got enough. I remember listening to the baby prep class stating that babies don’t need much. That they could sleep in a drawer. What they really need is feeling loved and attention.
The gift that I’ve been valuing more is the gift of time. The time with the PAX, with my family, with sky Q. Priceless. I thank the PAX for giving me their time and helping me understand mine. Aye!
