Grandma and Grandpa Edds said it was the best Christmas day they could remember because it was so joyful and lasted all day long. The boys don’t yet understand the concepts of Santa or Jesus’ birth; they were just excited by all the guests and activity. After a sticky-bun breakfast, we began opening presents. Each grandparent took a twin and opened gifts for them. Some children are more interested in the boxes than the gifts, but not ours. After opening each present they wanted to play with it, which was nice. Rather than tearing into the next package, they savored and appreciated each one. After a couple of hours, we took a break and the boys took their morning nap.
Then following brunch, we resumed the unwrapping and playing. They went bonkers when we opened the giant stuffed puppy dogs that Grandma and Granddad Roe gave them, and couldn’t have been cuter toddling around the room entertaining everyone. When all the gifts had been opened, we took another break. Daddy took the boys for a country road ride so they would take their afternoon nap. Later, Al and Lisa Bell joined us for the amazing Christmas dinner Sandy prepared. We are so blessed.
