Before 7 am this morning, Drew had already unwrapped and put on his Christmas Eve jammies. Drew’s defense: “What’s wrong? The package said open on Christmas Eve and TODAY is Christmas Eve!!!”
Drew: "Mom, can I make you a present for Christmas Eve?"
Me: "Umm, sure!"
Drew: "Can I use one of my old socks?"
Me: "Umm...."
Morley left some chocolates with a much-needed reminder for the kids to use kind words.
Drew reported: “Mom, you have to use sweet words with me cuz you love me and Morley said so.”
Not sure the message got through to him.

Drew interrupted the dinner prayer and said, "You know at the end of the prayer you say, 'Name of Jesus Christ, Amen'? Don't say that part. Instead, say 'Happy New Year!'"
Miriam: "Why?"
Drew: "'Cause it's for Christmas!"

I have to say she looks a bit jaded in these pictures. Please tell me there was something more interesting coming than that truck in the background.
Yeah, my camera died early on, when she was still warming up to the idea. We had fun, though.
Looks like so much fun! Lauren kinda lost out this year -- we weren't too festive. I asked Lauren what she wants to say to Tess and she said, "Mouse." So, yeah, there's that.
Darling picture of the family. Tess looks like she takes her patriotic responsibilities very seriously.
Miriam-I was a few posts behind and had so much fun catching up! I love the birthday post!!!!! A-no hats!!! I love how she puts "a" in front of her words.
And your list of things she has said lately is a classic! She is so dang funny. I wish I could be a fly on the wall at your house and hear her say all these things! I loved the papa comment!
I am glad she like "a-parades!" That is a GREAT photo of you, Ryan and her!! Happy 4th!
Tess is a-kind of cute!
