the tree is up

The girls and I waited to decorate the Christmas tree until Sunday with Daddy when he returned from his business trip. We turned on the Christmas music and let the girls decorate the lower part of the tree with the unbreakable ornaments. Bella was interested for about 20 minutes and then wanted nothing to do with all the fuss of the ornaments. Adelaide on the other hand was thrilled with each ornament and wanted to find a special place for each one. This year she has memory of the previous Christmas so she recalled a few favorite ornaments. It's sweet to see her so excited for the holiday. We keep talking about Thanksgiving but her mind immediately goes to the fact that Christmas is after Thanksgiving. And that's all that matters for her.
