25 days of Christmas


My wonderful Mother/Father-in-Law, have done the best thing ever! Right after Thanksgiving they gave my kids 25 bags with numbers and initials on them. The 25 bag represent the 25 days of December leading up to Christmas. So on December 1st, it started with our youngest, McKinley, and rotated to Reagan the on the 2nd, and to Lincoln on the 3rd, and so forth. In each bag is a cute little gift which was intended specifically for the opener! The kids don't even get upset when it isn't their turn. They sometimes help (especially McKinley's day), with opening the bag or wait excitedly to see what the new gift is. So on Lincoln's first day he opened a pair of pliers. He was SOOOOOOOOOO excited. He was so happy to have the tool, that he actually wouldn't put it down, instead he thought that it would be fun to use it to eat his favorite cereal Honey Smacks! What a funny kid!
