is christmas less joyful when you haven’t and won’t have children?

i don’t have a big family - just me and my hubby. since my mom passed i feel like christmas is more about childhood joy.

It's certainly larger to you when you have someone that takes joy in it.

we take joy but christmas festivités still seem more about kids. the shopping and preparation the santa stuff the carols — heavily centred on kids@SW-User
