Year 1, Day 115

There were some extra special gifts under the tree this year. Some of Jackson's favorites were a white Macy's box, a bunch of tissue paper that he used to blow snot rockets into, and a huge cardboard box that housed a really great toy which he may enjoy later. This was the year of wrapping, bows, and boxes for Jackson. Though he was very interested in the gifts and seemed intrigued for the most part, he was easily distracted by the opening of the packages. The tissue paper crinkle, the ability to hide and sit in boxes, and the versatility of crumpled paper is far too fascinating. All this, perfectly age appropriate behavior, I might add, and quite hysterical to watch in action.

Held dearest to his heart this year were the following items: the rocking horse, toy workbench, the ball popper machine, and all the stylish clothes that will keep keep him on the "Number 1 best dressed in daycare" list until Spring. He also enjoyed a toy dog on a leash and many books. Aside from all the great gifts, just being together and sharing dinner and laughter over the monkey meant so much during this time. Tomorrow, he will also see extended family and share a very special day together. Many thanks to everyone who made Jackson's second Christmas so special.
Love to you all . . .
