And it is different indeed. Our little ones are savvy and grow quickly, but Christmas is still pretty special.<br /><br />That milk request warmed my heart, too. I have a feeling she won't let go of that one.

I'll bet my son would like that book, as well. <br /><br />The thing about the kids getting older, and Santa passing his duties along to parents, is that the "toys" seem to get bigger and pricier each year.

I love her Christmas music.<br /><br />I'm happy for the extremes, but yes, it is fascinating how very different they are. It makes me wonder if I were a totally different mother the second time around. Either way, I'm happy the second isn't a clone of the first and vice versa. As kooky as they are, the balance is pretty nice. ;)<br /><br />Hope you had a wonderful Christmas, Nance.

I'm sure if there were something in it for her, she'd be on top of that. Mallow bars?

Off to NH soon for a little school vacation...<br /><br />Perhaps I'll find myself, in the new year, back to a more ordinary schedule here at SS (as if there has ever actually been a schedule)--at least for the Frolic. I'm feeling the need for routine lately. But that will have to wait until the children return to school.<br /><br />Isn't Lu kind? She's really a master at reading mother.
