It Was Very Merry

Andrew here.

We just celebrated Jesus' birthday! On Christmas Day we had cupcakes with candles in them. We sang "Happy To You Jesus" then we blowed out the candles.

Before that Daddy read us a story about baby Jesus being born. Then we got to open some presents.



And play with them.




Daddy helped us play too. He didn't have to go to work.



The night before Christmas we went to church. Bubba and I played in the nursery for a few minutes. Then Mama came and got us. We went out in the church. It was dark. Somebody turned the lights off. But there were lots and lots of candles. Mama got a candle. She didn't let me hold it. And she didn't let Bubba hold it. But after everyone was done singing a Christmas song, she let me and Bubba help her blow it out.

And for a few days before that we were at Granma and Granpa's house. We drove right by where the cows are. I saw "free" cows. Bubba saw five cows. They said, "MOOO!!!" Rachel and Anna and Aunt Cindy and Uncle David came there too. And Aunt Hazel came for few minutes. And Aunt "Roof" came too. And then Uncle Jeff and Aunt "WeeAnn" came and ate lunch with us.


Oh, and Uncle Nevin and Aunt Dee came and ate pie with us.



Bubba learned how to play Hide and Seek when they were there. And he was being silly with Uncle David.



And we went to see some more trains. They were little trains. They said, "Choooo-chooo!!" And there were little cars and trucks. And a fire truck that put out a fire. And when it was night time it would get dark and the stars would blink. And there was a parade and a circus.





Hope your Christmas was very merry too!

It Schnowed!!

Tuesdays

Yeserday* Mama tooked me to hear some boys and girls sing some Chwistmas songs. And there was a twumpet and some other instwuments. We went to church to hear them. First, they played the instwuments. Then they walked away and other boys and girls came. They singed songs. Then they moved their hands and said, "I'm hungwy, I'm vewy, vewy hungwy!" Then they singed more songs. And we cwapped evewy time when they stopped singing. Mama asked me if I wiked the music. I said YES!! She said when I get bigger maybe I can pway an instwument and sing just wike those boys and girls did. I said YES!! Andrew didn't come to hear the Chwistmas music. He stayed at home and pwayed with Daddy.

And yeserday after we ate bweakfast we dwove in our car to the twain station. When our twain came we got on it and sitted in seats. The twain dwove fast but not as fast as the other twain. I wooked out the window. When it was time to get off the twain we were in the city. We walked a wittle bit then went into a vewy, vewy big building. Other people were there and they were sitting on the fwoor. So we sitted on the fwoor too. And we wooked at the wall. We saw lots of different pictures and heared Chwistmas music. We even had funny eye gwasses to wear.


Mine kept falling off. When that was all done we walked outside again and went to anoder big building. There were wots of people sitting on the fwoor in there too. But we didn't sit this time, we standed. We saw lots of wights and heard more Chwistmas music. When it was all done, we got to climb on the big eagle.


Then we went outside and walked again. When we went in anoder building we sawed wots of wittle twains. Sometimes they moved and sometimes they stopped. And there were buttons to push and that made things move.


Then Mama and Daddy said it was time to eat wunch. I eated a cheese burger and Andrew eated a cheese samwich. We got to go wook at the wittle twains again. I wooked at the twains and Andrew went up and down, up and down, up and down the escawator. Then we waited for our big twain to come. We got on it and came home.





It was wots and wots of fun!!!

*Editor Mama's comment - Yesterday is any time in the past, no matter how long ago it was. We went to the Lehigh Christian Academy Christmas concert on Tuesday, December 15. The train ride to see the Christmas lights was a couple of weeks ago.
