Most of our holiday stress comes from Our Expectations versus The Reality

Throw in those pregnancy hormones, and look out!

Our Expectations:

We receive lots of presents
We get to eats lots of really good food
Every body is jolly and happy

The Reality:

We get one present or something that wasn't quite what we wanted
We get to eat lots of bad cooking :(
People are stressed and grumpy

Put a check on your expectations and focus on the good things and people you have.
Appreciate the present you did receive.
Appreciate the food, no matter how bad it tasted.
Be the one to smile and spend time with that person who is jolly and happy.
