It’s fun to watch Lainey as she fits into\u00c2\u00a0our existing Christmas traditions.\u00c2\u00a0 The decorations that our other children have grown up with are all new to her, and she definitely has shown some preferences.\u00c2\u00a0 Above, she’s holding Mary and baby Jesus…from two different nativity sets.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s convinced that these two go together, and brings them to me at least once a day.\u00c2\u00a0 I love how she looks at them so sweetly, holding the mama with her baby.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s really shown an interest in baby dolls lately, which I love.\u00c2\u00a0 My other daughters have never cared for them!<\/span><\/p>\n

A squeeze and a kiss for mama Mary.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

The other Christmas decoration she wants to see each day is our porcelain figure of Santa kneeling beside baby Jesus’ manger.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s out of her reach (I’m no dummy), so when I pick her up she points to it.\u00c2\u00a0 We talk about Santa and how he’s acknowledging the true meaning of Christmas, Jesus.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

I know she’s only 2, and this Christmas is all new to her.\u00c2\u00a0 But, I’m so glad that even she knows…somehow… that all these lights, presents, and the strange tree in the house are nice but it’s really all about the baby in the manger.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
