It's that time of year again; Holicraze has begun.Thankfully having kids in the house during Christmas time brings back the little joys of Christmas I have forgotten as an adult. Watching Anya light up last year when she experienced Snowflake Lane for the first time was truly magical. She danced with Frosty and the Snow Princesses- it was bliss. We went again this year and she was very excited. She danced with her favorite characters again and we all enjoyed the show.
We have also visited Santa already. It went very well. I had prepped Anya with her answer for Santa. Not all went as planned with that part of the visit though. Instead of waiting for Santa to ask her what she wanted for Christmas Anya told him she wanted an Ariel watch the moment she sat on his lap. He looked a little shocked at her forward request. She then proceeded to tell him that her mom and dad call him all the time. Nice. Now Santa thinks we are stellar parents. We have had several conversations with him when we are within earshot of Anya in hopes of correcting some behavior issues. So far it isn't working.
Since this post is focusing on Anya, let's talk about her as a big sister. SHE IS AMAZING! Granted Elin isn't moving yet so she isn't getting into Anya's stuff at all, I'm just enjoying this stage right now. Anya loves to get toys for Elin to look at and will sit and play with her to keep her from crying. She also distracts Elin in the car when she screams (she HATES the car) by singing songs to her.
