Christmas

Gabe was the Star in the church Christmas program. When he was trying to decide what to dress up as (because the young kids just sang and were angels, animals, or the star) he said to me, "You know, Mom, the star is an important element in the story."

The mic where the older kids delivered their lines was in front of Gabe, so throughout the program, he kept popping up and around so he'd be visible. It was hilarious and cute.

Christmas morning was good. Chi did not really get the concept o

f opening gift after gift. He wanted to just play with the first thing he opened. Gabe had to help him get his presents open. Gabe has pretty much been over the moon about all his presents, both today and

last weekend. I couldn't even say what is the favorite because right now he's been spending equal time on his gifts. Who wouldn't with remote control toys, Star Wars, marble run, Legos... Chi is enjoying all the presents, but it's funny because he doesn't really know what is going on.
