Wellness Over Things: A New Way of Approaching the Holidays

I never realized how much stuff was involved in a typical holiday until I had a daughter. 

During her first real Christmas (she was born about a week before Christmas, so that one doesn’t count), she received more presents than the rest of my family combined.

Toys, books, dolls, blocks, clothes, bikes…

You name it, it was probably under my tree for her to open. 

There was even a Yoda doll about twice her size.
