Merry Christmas 2012

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch!  Last night we attended a family Christmas party and to our surpise, Santa did not come, but a dastardly villian arrived instead...Well a dastardly villian until his heart was no longer three sizes too small.  It was the Grinch!  After performing the story, he called all of the children up to receive a gift.  Only one little child cried while he was telling the story, but all recovered quickly when they realized he had come bearing gifts.  This was a cute idea--The children had a fun time seeing this fictional character come to life.  Of course, Samuel tried to act too big for his britches so the Grinch had to break him down.  
I realized this was probably the last year Kelsey will receive a gift from the kiddie bag.  Next year, she is on to the adult game.  And time marches on.  I will hold on to this moment and give extra hugs to all today.  Merry Christmas--With love from the Hartles!
