The day when Dawson tracks Santa on Norad. He just loves that web site. He did spend 1.5 hours at the rink playing shinny/skating, to let out his high level of energy & excitement. He has trouble sleeping on Dec 24th. First he is scared of Santa coming in the house, then he hears reindeer's on the roof, then he questions if he will get what he wants, then he hears Santa putting stuff in his stocking, then he has to run to the washroom and he is afraid to go by himself, etc etc etc and before you know it, the time is 4:30 AM. Yes, he woke up at 4;30am ! I didn't let him get out of bed till 6am. The joys of kids and Christmas.
The following photo should bring back memories for some. The cookie of my childhood. I remember my Mother holding her tree decorating parties and we always used to hang these cookies on the tree, along with a string of Cranberries. I usually don't hang them on my tree but Dawson just loves them, so this year I carried on my mothers tradition. It was a nice walk down memory lane.
Yup -some things never change. As I am hanging cookies on the tree, l am reminded that kids enjoy other things about cookies. I remember being the same way as a kid.
