"Is today Christmas?"

That was the question I got last Saturday from Beatrice when I told her what was happening . No wonder, in addition to her school's Christmas show, she enjoyed....
getting and setting up the Christmas tree,
rediscovering favorite ornaments,
Heading out to see The Nutcracker,
getting one's first glimpse of REAL "ballet-ers,"
and visiting our friends' new puppy, not to mention watching Frosty AND Rudolph and setting up the manger. This week she did Christmas shopping for Daddy and me and has two wrapped gifts for us of which she is very proud, both because she's keeping secrets successfully and because she only spent $6! Today we visited a new friend who was also adopted from Vietnam and we celebrated my brother's 50th birthday. It's going to be a long week because this 3-year old is rarin' to go and has had one round of excitement after another!
