This year will be a very special Christmas for us, as it will be our son's first Christmas. He is fascinated with the ornaments and lights of the Christmas trees. My husband and I are having a wonderful time watching his curiosity with all the decor...and we have never been happier.
It is a wonderful thing to remember what it is like to see the splendor and beauty of Christmas through the eyes of a child.

Baby's First Christmas
You have to hold him up to see
The angel on the Christmas tree.
And even though he's still too small
To know the meaning of it all
You watch his eyes reflect the glow
Of colored lights that come and go
And feel him quiver with delight
At every new and wondrous sight.
There's Santa with his jolly face
Beaming from the fireplace.
And from the stocking hanging there
Peeks a cuddly teddy bear.
Bright ornaments and candy canes --
Musical toy and wooden trains --
There's just no end to the delights
Spread out for him this night of nights!
He points and grins from ear to ear
And then he yawns - his bedtime's near!
Dad gives him a kiss and you tuck him away
To rest up for the fun of his first Christmas Day!

Miss talking to you, but know you're a busy mommy! xxoo
