Dear Holy Cross Parents:
I hope this first week of Advent was a wonderful week for you
and your family! I came across the magazine KC Parent this week
and began to read an article on the Ten Commandments of Christmas. This article caught my eye for many reasons, but as I began to read
it, I realized there were some great things to think about! Here are
a few of the commandments according to the article:
Thou shall quit worshipping perfection—decide to do things
differently this year. Strive for the good and be satisfied
with good! Enjoy the process to get the end result—even if
that means the tree is lopsided or the candy won’t stay on
the gingerbread house! Enjoy the process of decorating
the tree and gingerbread house.
Thou shall not over commit– decide which activities your
family will participate in this year! You and your family
don’t have to attend everything—pick the one or two events
that are most enthusiastic about attending!
Thou shall rediscover “the why”- take some time to reevalu-
ate your priorities. How do you and your family want
Christmas to feel? What do you want your children to re-
member most?
Thou shall REST—Self care is essential all year long, but
especially during the extra busy holidays when your stress
level is most likely to sky-rocket. Take time to re-charge!
This is the perfect time of the year to really focus on the impor-
tance of the season! I hope that you and your family are following
your family traditions during Advent and hopefully making new tradi-
tions as well!
Enjoy your weekend.
Many blessings,
Dr. Hopson

Estimados Padres de la Holy Cross:
¡Espero que esta primera semana de Adviento haya sido una semana
maravillosa para usted y su familia! Me encontré con la revista KC
Parent esta semana y comencé a leer un artículo sobre los Diez
Mandamientos de la Navidad. Este artículo me llamó la atención por
muchas razones, pero cuando comencé a leerlo, ¡me di cuenta de
que había algunas cosas maravillosas sobre que pensar! Aquí están
algunos de los mandamientos según el artículo:
Debes dejar de adorar a la perfección; decide hacer las cosas
de manera diferente este año. ¡Luchar por el bien y estar satis-
fecho con el bien! Disfruta el proceso para obtener el resultado
final, ¡incluso si eso significa que el árbol está torcido o que los
dulces no se quedarán en la casita de jengibre! Disfruta del
proceso de decoración del árbol y la casita de jengibre.
¡No debe comprometerse demasiado! ¡Decida en que actividades
participará su familia este año! Usted y su familia no tienen que
asistir a todo, ¡elija uno o dos eventos que sean más entusiastas
para asistir!
Debes redescubrir "el porqué: tómate un tiempo para reevaluar
tus prioridades. ¿Cómo quieres que se sientan las navidades con
tu familia? ¿Qué quieres que tus hijos recuerden más?
Debes DESCANSAR: el cuidado personal es esencial durante
todo el año, pero especialmente durante las vacaciones más ocu-
padas cuando es más probable que tu nivel de estrés se dispare.
¡Tómese tiempo para recargar!
¡Este es el momento perfecto del año para enfocarse realmente en
la importancia de la temporada! ¡Espero que usted y su familia sigan
las tradiciones de su familia durante el Adviento y, con suerte,
también hagan nuevas tradiciones!
Disfruta tu fin de semana.
Muchas bendiciones,
Dr. Hopson
