Happy Christmas festiveness! Somehow Christmas is just next week, and I haven’t even sent out our Christmas cards due to a printing error at the shop. But amidst all the hustle and bustle and fun and stress, there are these two little people who make the holidays pure joy.
This year, Charlotte is all about Santa (although, if you would have seen her this morning at our Santa picture excursion, you would have thought the he’s her worst nightmare). She is so excited to celebrate, loves having birthday parties for baby Jesus, and loves decorations. This year at almost four, she really “gets it.” She still has a while before she truly understands the depths of the holiday, but as far as a child can comprehend, she knows the meaning of Christmas and that makes my heart so happy.
Then there’s Colin. At three months old, my sweet little love’s first Christmas is sure to be a blur, with memories only captured in photos for him to remember years from now. He absolutely adores his sister and laughs and smiles at her all the time. He loves listening to her tell him Christmas stories, and he loves looking at all the lights. He is bubbly and sweet and such a reminder of God’s calm presence with his laid back nature.
It truly is a blessing to have a pair of God’s miracles in my hands.
We’ve always loved pajamas around here, so I think I’ll make the matching pajamas a tradition for as long as I can. Maybe they’ll even match when they’re grown, for Mom’s sake. ;)
My loves, please don’t ever lose that sense of wonder and the JOY that Christmas brings.
MERRY CHRISTMASTIME!
