I was so excited for Christmas this year, as I thought Landon might actually notice that Santa came while he was sleeping. Wrong. Landon woke up at his typical time, 5:30 am, and went to the living room to hang out. Jeremy plugged in the lights of the Christmas tree and Landon never noticed the presents under the tree. I got to sleep in for a little bit and joined them at about 6:30 am. We started breakfast and got ready for the day. Finally around 8:30 am, I asked Landon if he noticed that Santa had come. His reaction was just an oh. I think he was enjoying all his gifts he got the night before.
Needless to say, Santa did not go overboard this year which was great. Landon got a toy story race track and a new tractor and wagon.Landon's reaction was "I told you." Not sure what he told me but anyway. |
We were so blessed this year and for the first time in many years were able to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas. A lot of my thoughts on Christmas morning went back to the boy we bought gifts for. A few weeks ago, Landon and I took a name of a tree at my coworkers church. Landon and I went shopping for this 10 1/2 year old boy. Jeremy was bummed he didn't have the opportunity to shop with us, so he wrapped the gifts instead. I told Jeremy on Christmas morning, I hope that boy liked his gifts. Jeremy said he was thinking the same thing. I hope you all had a Merry Christmas as well!
