The girls really enjoyed Christmas this year. We decorated for Christmas in late November, leaving a whole month of waiting for a three year old who doesn't have a concept of time. I'm fairly certain she asked: "Is Christmas tomorrow?" about a bazillion times. We did an advent calendar/devotion with her, which did help her have a concept of how long she needed to wait for Christmas Day. Everyday she looked forward to putting a new sticker on her calendar and settling in for a devotion. The "mostly" daily devotions also helped keep Christ's birthday at the center of our celebrations.
I only had a few decoration and nativity casualties this year (all due to Hannah), and I'm sure they won't be the last!
