Final thoughts on Christmas

Except for possibly a few more pictures or videos, I'll try not to dwell on Christmas past this post. I wanted to write down a few thoughts that I think Trevor thinks has a lot to do with Christmas due to the movies he watches at this time of year. His favorites are the Grinch. Both cartoon and live-action. He did watch the others like Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer but he'd always prefer the Grinch.

Which leads to the fact that he thinks that the Grinch comes every Christmas. And takes presents. "But he always gives them back". Which makes it ok, I guess. So it's been interesting to see Trevor try to decide what is going on. What does Christmas mean to him and such. He has been getting a lot of information from preschool on Jesus and his birth, but whenever you ask him about Jesus, he just thinks he is a baby that was born on Christmas day.

And yesterday we got another lovely phrase, this time from a Charlie Brown Christmas. Lucy loves to torment her brother Linus about his blanket. And she even calls it "That stupid blanket" a few times. So now Trevor's blanket is stupid. He obviously does not know anything about the meaning of the word, but for crying out loud - how lovely. That's what he picks up from the show?

Anyway, we hope you had a lovely Christmas and an even more wonderful new year.

Don't you mean "Good Grief"?
