Elves, Mary, and Santa

Phoebe has been obsessed lately with a snowman book that was Owen's. (It has a snowman that squeaks when you push it that drives the dog nuts.) Danny was reading it to her and was pointing at different things on the pages and asking her to tell him what they were. On one page the snowman has elves standing around him. Danny pointed to the elves and asked what they were and she said "friends" in her sweet voice.

On the way home from the Christmas parade last night we were talking about Mary and Joseph. Owen was asking about Mary. Then he said "What about Mary had a little lamb?". We had a hard time convincing him it was a different Mary.

Chloe is ten but I haven't heard any questioning from her about Santa being real. Yet. She mentioned to me yesterday that some kids say that Santa isn't real. She said than who do they think the Santa they see is, because you never see any Santa costumes at the store.

Get Chloe 'Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus'--my mom got this for me and I still believe :)
