This morning was your first day in the 5-8 year old class at gymnastics. Coach Nickie kept checking on you and said you did really great! Coach Tammy welcomed you into class and you fit right in like you had always been there. You listened and stayed with the group great!
You & Veda before class 
We were planning to go to fancy breakfast to celebrate, but you asked to go home for breakfast. While I was cooking, you and Daddy started putting together your growing Christmas tree that Ms. Sandy got you. You put it together with Daddy and then put the water on it. After just a few minutes it was already sprouting. It takes 24 hours to be finished.
After that, you started working on the Paw Patrol gingerbread house. I’m fairly certain you ate more candy than you decorated with but you had a fantastic time. You and Daddy made a great team! You took a quick break to eat breakfast and came back to decorating several times throughout the day.
We cleaned up, changed & headed to a park to meet Katrina & Chrissy to take pictures with the Hot Cocoa Vignette Katrina put together. She had a jug of chocolate drink she put in the pitcher and it’s ALLLLLLL you wanted lol! As we were getting close to wrapping up, you wanted a cup of the drink to go. I told you no, that we would get some chocolate milk at the grocery store when we left. You weren’t having that so you went over to the spout, put your mouth under it and tried to drink right from it! Needless to say, I put a stop to that and we got in the car and left. At first you were upset, but we talked about it and you recovered nicely. We went to the grocery store and to Jo Ann Fabrics to get gift bags for Daddy’s work Christmas party tonight.
When we got home, some of his co-workers were already at the house. Katie, one of his employees, brought you a necklace with an Italian Lira coin on it because you just got your passport. It was such a nice gesture. You showed everyone there your growing Christmas tree and we sent some pictures to Ms. Sandy to say thank you!
Emily Brophy came to stay with you while we went to the party. You asked me to send you pictures from the party so you could see what it looked like. As expected you were still up, but very tired, when we got home. The report was excellent and you were a great listener! We went to potty then headed to your room straight away as it was almost 10:30p! You snuggled up with me and I fell asleep with you! I woke up at 2am to and went to my room but Daddy was snoring so loud that I grabbed my pillow and went back to your room and slept with you!
I love you so much!
