The Gift of Childhood Memories
"The best thing you can give your children, next to good habits, are good memories."
-Sydney Harris
We’ve started thinking about what gifts to give our kids this holiday, and it’s difficult to think of anything they could possibly need. Of course, there is an onslaught of ads aimed at our kids, convincing them that there are still toys, clothes, and electronic gadgets they must have. My seven-year-old adds to his Christmas list weekly and is especially focused on getting something he can drive. Thinking back to my own childhood, I'm hard-pressed to remember many gifts I received. And there is only one that I still have -- my sewing machine!
