Since we have three little girls to help us enjoy Christmas we have unpacked every musical or lighted decoration we have had stored in various storage units for years. We almost don't have a place for all of them but they are on display. And of the three, Daisy is the one who has gone ballistic over all of it. She knows only two words, "Mine!" and "No!" but she still tries to sing along with these decorations. It has been a source of immense joy and laughter for us.
Daisy and Zoey enjoying two dancing Santas. Daisy wants both
of them going at the same time and you dare not let one quit
dancing. We had to give up and put them on the floor so she
could sing for extended periods of time.
This one is a little rock and roll guy like a Blues
Brother. It vibrates and jumps all over the table.
She squeals when this one plays.
I meant to post this long before now.
The last time we were in Deadwood, we found these odd little orbs. They make a noise I cannot possibly describe to you. They take on a life of their own bouncing and rolling everywhere all by themselves. We bought 3. They are loud and very annoying. Within minutes of showing these objects to the girls Daisy had figured out how to turn them on and off. I have difficulty doing that myself. She likes to try to hold all three by herself. Zoey and Hannah have already grown tired of them and now find them annoying. Daisy can't get enough.
We will admit these orbs can drive us up the wall, but anything
that's this entertaining to little ones is worth every annoying sound.
There's nothing like the wonder of Christmas as seen through the eyes of a child. What a blessing.
