Christmas without magic
Have you ever wondered what would happen if we shared the Christmas magic with our husbands? 😅
I read an article saying that moms should share the mental load of Christmas more — that it’s wrong to believe only mothers can create the magic.
And honestly?
I partly agree.
I LOVE sharing tasks at home.
But when it comes to Christmas… nope. 🎅✨
This is in our blood.
If I asked my husband to decorate the house, he’d kindly say: “No.”
If I asked him to pack 72 Advent calendar gifts for our 3 kids, he’d say:
“They have enough toys. Let’s stop this.”
If I asked him to bake cookies?
“Skip it this year. It doesn’t matter.”
They don’t mean it badly — they just don’t feel Christmas like we do.
But we do. ❤️
Let me tell you…
Christmas would be VERY dark.
No lights.
No decorations.
No Santa magic.
No cookies.
No gingerbread houses.
Sure — families would save hundreds of dollars 💸
But the magic?
✨ Gone.
And maybe that’s okay…
Because some magic is carried by mothers — not because we have to, but because we love to. 🎄❤️
