On Christmas morning Emma came in to us around 6:40am. She was still a little sleepy as I said "Merry Christmas!" Immediately her head picked up and she smiled a "Merry Christmas" back, before hugging me. Without pause she added "Are there presents under the tree?"
We were going over to Scott's parents for the rest of the day after church, so we had taken all the gifts over there, to open with the family. However, we knew Emma at least understood that "Santa" leaves stuff under the tree, and while we aren't perpetuating the myth, we don't want them to think they are "bad" because they didn't get stuff from him.
Let me tell you, Toby did not put that flashlight down all day! It was likely his favorite gift!
Then we headed off to church - on time!!
