I have no idea why but Roma has been talking up a storm about Christmas and when Santa comes to visit. She tells me and John that she wants to give Santa a gift this year. She wants to wake up and give him the present. I told her that Santa doesn't visit when little boys and girls are awake. She then said; "OK, I'll write on the card To Santa, From Roma." This morning she told me that she didn't want to put the plastic candy canes or any other ornament on the Christmas Tree. She wants the real candy ones. I told her that Santa likes to put the real candy canes on the tree and hide them behind all the ornaments. If we don't put the ornaments on, then no candy.
I think some of this talk is part candy motivated because Halloween is mentioned as well, but Christmas is more prevalent. I'm also happy that she is talking about it now. It means she'll really enjoy the holiday this year. I even think that she really didn't get it the last couple of years. This year will be the one that she remembers.

yeah, Sonia drags out the Santa books to read every once in a while too. I have no idea why, specially since you know he's not exactly her favorite person. You guys should have a really memorable holiday season this year! She's at a really good age for fun.
how cute. Don't you love trying to figure out the reason behind the story.

aw, the memories you are making. :-) Did she say what kind of gift she wants to give santa? The girls keep reminding me that we haven't had carrots for the reindeer, so I need to remember to do that this year. Hope it's a fun holiday season this year for you all.
