Hi Everyone,
We had a wonderful Christmas this year! We had Lexi up with us, this was our 1st Christmas having her up with us on Christmas Day. It was so great to have her with us!
The Saturday before Christmas we had our good friends John and Becca come over and Becca helped Lexi, Elli, and I make Christmas cookies! We all had a lot of fun!
I had to share a funny Elli stroy… the only reason this story is funny is because the girl Elli said this to also thought it was funny. 1st I have tell you a little background of Elli, she is THE MOST social kid I have ever met.. she is always willing to talk and share a hug with anyone.
The other day we were at the ped office and Elli saw a girl (about 13) who had her head shaved, I am guessing she is getting chemo. Elli looks at the girl and you can see the little wheels turning in her head.. she smiles her big smile at the girl and asks her if she got a haircut? The girl laughed and said, “yeah and I should go get my money back”. Elli smiled again and then told the girl; “You look like my Daddy!”… the girl and her mom laughed really hard at this… she continued to start asking the girl about what kind of suckers she liked… So sweet! I love kids, they ask what ever is on their little minds and once they get their answers they are 100% ok with it. We have had several kids approach us and ask what is wrong with Jak’s mouth, we explain it and they are ok with it. I wish that honesty and innocence could last a little longer in all of us!
Elli had her Christmas Recital at Day Care last Thursday night. They played Jingle Bells and Little Drummer Boy. They were SOOOO bad is was cute! All the preschoolers were banging their drums and the Wobblers (toddler room) were spent most of the time screaming because they did not want to be there!
