Let the countdown begin! Thanks to Grammy and Papa for hand-delivering this classic, chocolate-filled advent calendar. Each night after dinner, we count the days and enjoy a chocolate treat. We also sing the
"Cho-co-la-te" song in Spanish! This pause for sweetness is fulfilling the purpose of an advent calendar in our busy lives this December. I like stopping to see things through Augie's (stunningly blue) eyes, like how he laughed for days at the idea of bringing a tree into our living room. I love how the white lights inspired his use of the word "pretty", which he now uses to describe "pretty tree" and "pretty house". I adore how he scrunches up his darling face while gazing at the tree, allowing his eyes to blur as he sings an improvised carol. Christmas is coming!
