My favourite part of the holidays is how spirits change for many people. There's a collective sense of cheer and joy and hope for the new coming year. Now that I am a parent, seeing my kids excitement and sharing traditions with them is forefront. It's a lovely distraction.

My favourite thing about the holiday season is decorating the christmas tree while the cats try and climb it and steal all the ornaments!

Going tobogganing with my kids...showing them how it’s done. Although, going off of jumps now seems to hurt more than I remember as a kid.

The best part of my Christmas season would be when I'm with family who have younger kids. I enjoy seeing their little faces as they open gifts they've dreamt of, and their faces when they get something they don't really like, too! It's fun to see and share their energy.
