Having a three-year-old really changes your perspective on Holidays. Soren was SO excited for Thanksgiving. And he realizes what Christmas is and is very excited for it. But the concept of time is hard for him to grasp. He has been asking me for awhile if it is "almost Christmas." It is pretty cute. So we set up the tree a few days ago. We found a little Christmas apron in there and I told him we were going to use the apron when we make Christmas cookies. He asks me each day if it is almost time to make Christmas cookies.
He came upstairs this morning and exclaimed, "Oh yay, the Christmas tree is still up!"
We are still a long way off from making cookies together, but we made "Christmas Soup" instead. I am pretty sure every meal we cook between now and Christmas will be renamed. He was so excited to help with the rice for the soup.
