oh, christmas tree

Dear Della,


Tonight we decorated our Christmas tree that we cut down over the weekend with all the Baldwin family. At the farm, you had such a fun time running through all the trees and splashing in the mud with your cute lady bug boots. Too bad we didn't have the camera.


While I was getting down all of the decorations from the attic, you and Dada started on the tree. He worked on the lights while you helped your self to the ornaments. It was like you were an old pro. You started putting the ornaments on all by yourself without us even showing you how. I guess all the holiday propaganda has soaked in already. This is a good thing because I am not a fan of putting ornaments on the tree. I always unwrap them all while Dada hangs them. I tried to filter some of the ones going up tonight but Dada was on to me. He looked at the tree and said, "Aren't there more ornaments?". I guess it a good thing that I enjoyed watching to two of you having so much fun.






Last year, Gran gave you your very own tree which is about a foot and half tall. I got that out and told you it was yours. You began decorating that tree as well. After while, you went up to it and said "Della" then pointed to the big one saying "Dada".




Getting you to bed tonight took a little longer than normal. You enjoyed watching Rudolph (who doesn't though?) and looking at the Santa musical thingy. After we said it was time to go nigh, night, you went up to the big tree to give it a hug (a prickly proposition) and a kiss (maaahhh). Then you did the same thing to your tree. You are too cute, my friend.



Love you,


Mama
