This year was one of the best!!!! It started by putting our Christmas tree up early... I'm talking, first of November early. SOO worth it. Those few extra weeks made all the difference for our family. We were able to really think and pray about how to serve, how to help, and who needed a little extra Christmas lovin' :)
Another perk.. E!! She was such a blast.. to buy for, and to watch Christmas morning. We didn't know how much she would be able to enjoy it at 15 months, but she caught on pretty quick. Once she was done opening hers, she moved on to mine and J's to see if another Elmo, or Toy would pop out of the wrapper. One of Dad's gifts to her was to clean out our spare bedroom and make it strictly her toy/play room. I did our morning routine, picked her up out of bed, changed her diaper, and let her run to the front TV room where we drink a bottle and watch Elmo. Instead of running straight for the TV room, she stopped immediately and ran into her new room... She was sooo happy to have more space in our tiny house, for just her!! THAT made the long hours for Dad simply worth it!
