...saying "what's that" mommy? 
comfort and joy 
sweet as 
dash
snow flakes fall on trees
Precious Ava Kate,
You are loving the Christmas tree, the lights and all the ornaments. You especially love the snow men. You are enjoying books so much and love to ask questions. We have been reading a book about the birth of Jesus and you love to ask "where did baby Jesus go?" when we turn the page, it is so cute! You also are singing twinkle, twinkle, little star and jingle, jingle happy bells. I love to hear you sing sweet baby. Your hair is getting longer and you are looking more like a sweet little girl and less like a toddler. It goes by so fast. I am just grateful for every moment and the "hi mommy, hi" I get when I get you in the morning. You are also starting to say "morning mommy". Growing up my baby.
The other night we watched Charlie Brown and you now love your Snoopy stuffed animal. You were looking all around for him tonight but couldn't find him, and you were asking "where Snoopy go?".
You still love being outside and enjoy playing hide and seek. You are such a happy little one. We can't wait to celebrate Christmas with you and make many more memories. We are getting you a few toys and books for Christmas but you don't know what it is all about yet. And you don't seem to care that there are no presents yet under the tree.
For now, you will just want to know "where did baby Jesus go?" when we read our Christmas story. And I pray that you keep searching for him and find that he is here. After all, Christmas reminds us that we are not alone. Immanuel, God with us.
Merry Christmas sweet Baby Bear - Mommy
A Beautiful Fall Day
Here we are heading out!
