How do you feel about Christmas? Love it? Hate it?

Do you wish Christmas would come and go quickly or do you look forward to it with great enthusiasm? Do you believe Christmas has lost its meaning given all the materialistic connotations associated with it or does it still have a special place in your heart?

I look forward to christmas every year. I enjoy my kids waking up to presents under a christmas tree.
This year as my children are so young i have put yellow labels on presents and orange on the other childs presents so they can identify what presents are for who, incase they wake up early and get to the prsents before i wake up. I have told them the yellow is for one and the orange for the other so im so keen to see if this idea works as they have just learnt colours.
On another note raising my children i have told them santa is from the moon and he watches when they are being naughty, so when they are really naughty i tell them be good or santa will take their toy, so if they keep playing up i tell them santa has taken it to the moon and will give it bak when they are good, its going to be quite funny this year to hear them ask Santa why he took their bike, but on another note they will be telling him how good they have been this year, Christmas will be very exciting this year
