My kids crack me up.  I taught Emma the song “the 12 days of Christmas”, which she thought was hilarious because who wants a partridge in a pear tree for a present.  We sang it so much Zach caught on to the idea of “days of Christmas” – he thinks that you get as many days of Christmas as you are old.  So he wasn’t sad when Christmas day was over… he had 4 more.  But poor Carter, he didn’t get any.  And he said to me today, “Don’t worry, Mom – you still have 30 days of Christmas.”  Here are a few pictures from our first day of Christmas.  From Zach diving under the sheet hung in the hallway to get the first peek at the stuff from Santa and proclaiming each present “the best I’ve ever gotten!”, Emma hearing Santa’s sleigh bells and rejoicing over the box of balloons he left her, and Carter enjoying eating the wrapping paper more than any present, it was a happy, memorable day. Here’s to 30 more, apparently starting tomorrow.
