Happy Happy Kids!

Instead of marbling, we put up the tree and decorated it, strung lights on the fence outside,  and Nathan played lively Christmas music on You Tube.

Elena was afraid the elf might be summoned by the lights on the tree and she didn't want to see Elmer.  "It will take away the magic if I see him," she said.

They were both so excited--I think Nathan may still be a believer, but if he's not, he covers it well--and with each ornament unpacked, one of them said, "Oh, I remember when...."  The word, remember, is what makes Christmas so special for kids as their memories already layer over each other.
