Deck the Halls

We finally put up the Christmas tree Friday night and Seth was quite a helper! He was so excited to help Daddy open the box and fluff up the branches. He quickly figured out how to hang the ornaments on the branches and took delight in seeing what each new ornament coming out of the box would be. As we hung the ornaments, I told Seth about the special ones - from when I was a baby, our honey moon and from when Seth was born. Seth put one ornament on top of the next and wasn't satisfied until every decoration was on the tree. We kept saying, "OK, that's enough." - to which he would reply, "No. Day's anudder (there's another) one." He doesn't quite grasp the concept of less is more. When he went to bed that night, he said, "Goodnight tree. Goodnight 'deco-ray-sheen'. Goodnight no man (snowman)."
