And the experience of having everything in storage. I went to check on the spot where the mobile home was going to be put up the space, right? And only one part of the space was there. So we're walking around in our neighborhood and I begin to see, because I wasn't bombarded with all the prompt and circumstance of presents and lights and meals, I noticed something about Christmas Day. It was very quiet, it wasn't cold. This was Arizona

You. Thanks so much for sharing this story. I can relate to that moment of just peacefulness when you really don't need much. And I think that it's really important to remember that, especially the holidays, that you don't need to buy all these different gifts and be surrounded by all the stuff. My family, we've been trying to do more experiences together and less just having to buy a bunch of things that we probably don't even need. But thank you so much
