Dear Mackenzie,
And just like that, Thanksgiving is over and we're looking ahead to Christmas. And Christmas through kids' eyes is always the best! Say what you will about the consumerism and overspending but it is so sweet to see how excited little (and big!) kids get about decorations and cookies and gifts. We started decorating the house for Christmas yesterday and when we began placing the garlands and bows and bells around the living and dining rooms, your eyes lit up and you shouted, "This is the best day ever!" You were so happy to hang ornaments on the tree and when I turned on the Christmas tree lights, your eyes widened so much and you let out the cutest "Oooh!" You have already listened to my Christmas playlist about a dozen times and the way you smile and bounce-dance to "Last Christmas" is so adorable! You have proclaimed that you like Christmas more than Thanksgiving and Halloween and have already asked me a few times, "Is tomorrow Christmas?!" Oh sweetie, I think this may be a very long month for you! I can't wait to see your reaction when you wake up on December 25 and I tell you that it's finally Christmas morning!
Love,
Mom
