And yet another post

DADDY: Pretend someone has never heard of Christmas.  How would you tell them what it is?

M: Christmas is about loving others.  And definitely your parents and definitely again your family.  Here is a fact about Santa: you better be good or Santa's not going to give you any presents.  And that's it for facts.

I like when Santa comes and I like to open presents.  We wake up and go downstairs for what I just said.  With our parents.  And I like when the Elf on the Shelf comes to our house

I hope I am not on the Naughty List.  I like Santa.

A: You know someone who has never heard of Christmas?  Christmas is a very special year.  It's where we get presents and we open them and we get them from Santa.

D: But why is it a special day?

A: Because Santa comes.

D: But why?  Why does he come?  Why do we have this special occasion?

A: ...

D: Is it someone's birthday?

A: Yes, mine.

D: Okay, your birthday is on the 18th.  Who was born on Christmas?

A: JESUS!

M: Can I tell you a fact about elves?  Elves can see through walls.  That's important because they can see if we're bad or good and they report to Santa.  If you're bad, Santa will bring you a stick or coal.  And here's something about sticks and coal: they are not fun.  And did you know that when it gets cold outside for Christmas the water freezes up into ice and then sometimes it rains at Christmas and that's called precipitation, which is when the water rises up and the clouds get too full and it rains.

A: I hope that it snows and not rains on Christmas.  I like to have snowball fights and build snowmans.

    I really like the colors in your blog. I like to write, too, and I like snowflakes and angels and Christmas. Tomorrow is my birthday. I had fun reading this.
    Merry Thanksgiving!

  3. Dear Maeve & Addie,
    I was reading your blog to my dog, Cooper, and he wants you to know that sometimes sticks are fun. Well, fun if you're a dog. Cooper has enough sticks though, so he's going to ask Santa for a new stuffed hedgehog.
