It has always struck me as an odd tradition - though the element of surprising the littles pushes me towards understanding their position by a sliver. Love your blog, it took me a while to find it, but I'm glad I did :) AliAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5312144590530601004.post-61893010811542059812010-11-29T09:38:59.785-08:002010-11-29T09:38:59.785-08:00I hear you, Becca!

Samantha will love it no matter how it's done!<br /><br />I guess I sound pretty judgemental towards the mom. Maybe he didn't like putting up the tree. Maybe he preferred the surprise when he got home. Maybe. <br /><br />Oh, well. It's just something that stuck with me over the years.Carol N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02223840533561032208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5312144590530601004.post-71402529745971900012010-11-29T09:21:53.658-08:002010-11-29T09:21:53.658-08:00I love that you all do it together.

If it falls on a weekday, I'm at work during the day and I get home just before Samantha goes to bed. And often, Steve is working in the evening. So I have to get creative. Perhaps it can't be all 3 of us, but I may keep Sammi awake just a little bit longer on Wednesday and have her help me out a bit in the decorations department.Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14963099760885760598noreply@blogger.com
