This week has been another exciting one, full of learning, playing inside and out in the snow, and preparing for Christmas! I can hardly wait! We covered letters H (Holy Spirit), I (inn), J (Joseph), K (King of kings), L (lamb), M (Mary), and N (Names of Jesus) in our Advent study. I play with my Little People set everyday and even showed Deklan who Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus are. One of my new activities is to count the figures in the Nativity set. I started doing this on my own. I told Mom, "Hey, let's count them!" and she obliged. Speaking of counting, there are only 11 day until Christmas!
I have been playing with the tree and Christmas decor a lot around the house, especially the snowmen that sit on the fireplace. Mom DVR'd a bunch of shows for me, including Polar Express (choo choo train, as I lovingly refer to it), Frosty The Snowman and Frosty's Winter Wonderland. I can't watch them enough. I sing the Frosty song several times a day and even practiced my belly whoppers and thumpty thump thumping on the sled. I had my buddy Emerson join me for that. It was his first time sledding, and since I'm a seasoned veteran (sledding with Mom and Dad in Colorado previously) I showed him how to do it.
We went racing down the hill and trudging back up together and with our Moms, over and over again. We had a great time...even if it was longer than expected due to a garage door debacle. Any proper sledding experience must be capped off by a warm cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows. All this Christmas talk has helped me learn how important giving and sharing are. God gives abundantly, so we should do so as well. I am getting a little better at sharing. Emerson and I shared the sled today, the Buzz mobile, hot chocolate (I even shared with Woody and Jessie), and lots and lots of hugs. Friends are some of the best gifts that we can get!
See you next week!
