Welcome to This Glorious Mess Big Kids. A twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is - confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny, and full of surprises. So many surprises!

What Christmas sticks out in your memory? 

Was it the year you saw Santa in your living room? Or the year you swear you could hear reindeer on the roof?

This Christmas eve, we wanted to take a trip down memory lane. So we asked you for your most memorable Christmas stories. So hang up those stockings, wrap those last minute prezzies and strap in for an episode that will be sure to warm your heart. 

Plus, on parenting mentors, how do you keep the Christmas magic alive when you have an older and curious kid?
