Aidan's Advent, Day 8

When Aidan awoke this morning, he discovered that Sally the Elf had indeed flown out of his room last night and visited Santa. Sally reappeared on our kitchen table, driving Santa's sleigh! Oh my! Does Sally have a license for that thing?

Aidan's advent calendar listed another charitable activity today: take gloves and hats to the Christmas tree at school. This is an annual service project, and we were excited to participate!

Aidan opened Who is Coming To Our House tonight - a story about how the barn animals prepared for Jesus' arrival. Super cute:)

In other news, Aidan is on day six of no nap. He *needs* to take a nap, but is refusing, so our days have been pretty long this week. Because he hasn't been sleeping in the afternoons, we started leaving him at school for the full day today, which is only about 90 minutes longer than before, but it gives me a chance to get some work done...much needed!

See you tomorrow!
