Drew's First Christmas

Well, I think Christmas lived up to all Drew expected and more. He was a little spoiled by all the gifts. We had a Palmer family Christmas and he seemed to enjoy that. He was excited to get gifts. He then had to wait 5 more days until Christmas. It was a hard wait. He laid by the tree a couple times and just shook saying, "I want presents!" He still asked a few times whether we really bought him presents. He still was not sure. On Christmas Eve, we had the Williams family Christmas and he got many gifts. He kept counting them and couldn't believe all he got. After that we went to church. He almost fell asleep on the way which meant he was crabby in church for most the service. I had to remind him that if he wanted Christmas to happen, then we needed to be at church as Jesus is the reason we have Christmas. He was a little confused between Jesus and Santa. He did go home and fell asleep rather quickly. The next morning all three were up a little before 7 a.m. and they woke us by 7. Drew got what he wanted from Santa and more. (He asked for a Rocket Clock and Star Wars legos.) He continues to ask about school almost each day. I know he misses the routine. Overall, however, he is having a nice break.
