Gift-giving can be so fun... and so stressful! The purpose of gift-giving is to celebrate a relationship, but it's easy to get wrapped up (pun intended) in all the perceived anxiety and pressure around tangible expressions of love. In this episode we break it down to its simplest form: desiring to surprise and delight the person you are honoring. We chime in on our favorite gifts to give, our go-to gifts we keep on hand, and the best gifts we've ever received.
Here is the article Michelle referenced about the evolution of Halloween.
Some of our favorite gifts for kids:
