I was talkin' with the boy this morning about Christmas.
"Christmas is when we celebrate Jesus's birthday."
It wasn't a rant against commercialization or any of that...presents are fun, an inflatible Santy Clause that pops his head out of a travel trailer is fun, tacky Christmas displays in store windows are fun...besides he's two.
Even at two he knows what a birthday is and he at least knows the name Jesus...so I figured he could form some kind of concept in his head.
He did...
"I ['ll] get my party hat."
So I guess now Christmas won't be Christmas in his tiny mind unless we all gather around his little table wearing cone-shaped party hats...helium balloons tied to our wrists...eating manger themed cupcakes.
Why not. I love cupcakes.
If you want to pimp your site on my blog...hang around for a while and and get to know somebody. We'll discuss it...and the going rate.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas.
Does the boy have a signed permission slip to eat that manger themed cupcake?
ReplyDeleteIf he don't...there won't be no pictures on the internet. You can be sure of that. :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to active participation...lurker.
A manger themed birthday you say? I wonder if I can make that happen for my big 2-5 in 2011. In September. Whatever, I thought it was cool.
