My name is Jessica. I am 27. And this Christmas was supposed to be the first one I spent for myself instead of saving everyone else.Instead, I ended up watching my mom clutch her phone, her face draining of color as she whispered, \u201cWhat? This cannot be happening.\u201dFive kids screamed in the background on a video call.Toys crashing.Someone crying because juice spilled on a brand-new dress.On the other end of the line, my mom stared at the picture I had just sent her of my beach chair, my sunglasses, and the plane ticket with today\u2019s date on it.She had built her perfect holiday around one assumption\u2014the same one my family had leaned on for years\u2014that I would quietly give up my plans to be the babysitter for all five grandkids while everyone else dressed up and had fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
