Is it Christmas yet?

I think I hear this almost every day! Kadee is so excited for Santa to come that she can't hardly stand it! Nor can I! This is the first Christmas where she has really gotten into the Christmas spirit. The last couple of years she has been to young to really know whats going on. This year she has loved giving money to the bell ringers and I even got her to clean out her toy box and give some of her good toys to the DI. It was hard for her at first but once I explained to her that some kids don't have any toys to play with she really started to get into it saying "mom I want to give this to the poor kids!" I had to stop her once or twice for trying to get rid of my old Barnie dog that I have had since I was a baby, I let her sleep with it when she was sick last week and now she is trying to give it away. Oh well, we had a great time cleaning out her room and teacher her about giving.
Every year we go out and get a real tree from the mountains. This year it is a little miss shaped but full. I love the smell of real trees but I hate the clean up!

Haha! Kadee sounds exactly like Katelyn! She asked everyday if today was Christmas and I kept telling her no. So, Christmas Eve I tell her that tomorrow would be Christmas and she almost didn't believe me because I told her no for almost a month! LOL
