Building to the Big Event

Cammie 'n Chris' baby is due in 26 days. Christmas day is her due date and before that comes to be Cammie must finish her first semester of nursing school, we need to set up furniture for the baby and we must do all the usual things expected at Christmas. Final exams haunt Cammie. Not knowing the exact date of the arrival of the baby adds stress. We are not organized; that adds stress. Christmas letter to do, cookies to bake, the house to decorate! Are all these things really necessary?
