December Events

Let's continue with our events from last year.

School Performance - In the middle of December your Sunday school put together a little performance for the holiday. Let me just say, you shined and rocked the "stage". I was so proud of you. You weren't shy at all like you can be at first. You always had a great impression on your face and gesturing with your hands when you sang. Cutest thing ever. At one point, I was laughing so hard. You really looked like you enjoyed yourself on stage. One of the grandma's sitting next to me, asked if you were my kid and I said yes. Then she goes "I think you need to take her straight to Hollywood". I giggled but also thought the same thing.


Kid Gift Exchange - It is been a few years and sort of turned into a tradition by now. A group of our friends get together, have dinner, and then exchange gifts (just for the kids). This year, as the kids get older, it is more fun to see them socialize, play with each other, open and get excited about their gifts. Miss A was helping with getting the gifts under the tree and giving them to the kids.


New Year - We stayed at home to celebrate New Years. I think we actually stayed at home for the last few years. Mr. V's parents came over and my parents came over around midnight. They spent some time with my brother first at their house. Miss A decided to not go to sleep and stayed up till 12:05am. As we poured champagne into our glasses and began the countdown, miss A was counting with out. She got so excited that when midnight stroke and everyone was wishing each other Happy New Year, miss A totally didn't know what the hype was all about. She turned to me and asked "Mommy, where is the New Year". I explained that it is not something physical she can see or touch. She listened carefully, thought for a few seconds, and then said "Mom, I want to go to sleep". The next day she woke up and opened all of her gifts from Ded Moroz (Santa), parents, g-parents, and cousins.
