I am such a kid!! I pretend that I am counting the sleeps "with" my kids but really I am doing it for myself. I love Christmas. It used to be for the presents when I was younger. Now I get just as excited to see my kids open thier stuff. They get spoiled every year as they will again this year. But we have taught our kids the true meaning of Christmas and they really do get it. (I am not just saying that because I am their mom!)
I will tell you all about their cool stuff after Christmas...just in case they read this!!
On another note, my daughter proved her impulsiveness again last night. We went to First Choice last night to get Noah a hair cut and she asked for a trim. I said sure...a nice trim before Christmas...very nice. Now I should tell you that her hair grows very slowly...VERY SLOWLY! We have been growing her bangs out for 3 YEARS. Her hair is all one length and down just a little past her shoulders. She was looking through one of the hair salon books and finds a picture she likes. "Can I get my hair cut like this?" she says. I look...it has bangs and cut to the chin!!. I decided long ago that I would not fight battles that are not worth fighting...and this is one of those battles. So I said sure but only if she really wants to. Well she went right up to the girl and said "like this please"...sits down and off comes the hair. She looks great...I love it...she loves it...Rob, not so much, He is a long hair guy and loves her with long hair. I told him to get used to the fact that she will do the exact opposite of what we want her to do and be thankful it is not purple and in a mohawk!!
Have a great day

Anyway, with her little face, Emily could have her hair purple and in a mohawk and still be a cutie!!!
