Here is a picture of Maya last Christmas Eve.A year ago Maya was crawling around the tree. It is amazing to see what she has accomplished in one year. Mark and I are enjoying helping Maya understand the many traditions and things that go along with Christmas this year. She has learned many sentences in the last month. One sentence, inspired by the Christmas display at the store, "I Like!"
She is so animated as she responds to the lights, decorations, and music that go along with the holidays. She had her first cup of hot chocolate yesterday and LOVED it to say the least! Today, we set up our tree and wouldn't you know Santa has already popped over?! He dropped off a copy of "A Night Before Christmas" so Maya could learn all about what he'll be up to on Christmas Eve! She has been playing with our nativity scene quite a bit as well. Baby Jesus, aka "JC" according to Maya, has gone missing but we're sure he'll show up by the time his birthday arrives.
We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Enjoy the holiday season and all the celebrations that come along with this time of year!

Oh, how I look forward to this Christmas, to see Maya's delight in all that Christmas brings! The birth of our Savior seems even more wonderous through the eyes of children!
