Sweetie, you are still so hard on yourself.

I know what it is to have everything on your shoulders. It is hard.

But you dont have to do it all. Your son needs to step it up. He lives there, too.

Why is it all on you? All your children should be helping, IB. They are old enough to be helping with shopping, decorating, cooking.

Keep the holidays simple. Make new memories. It doesnt matter what you buy, what you cook. What matters to them is that you are there.
