Why, yes, that IS a picture of Dennis decorating his personal Christmas tree before Thanksgiving (a violation of Daddy's sacred rule). All the ornaments on this tree are significant to him, many of them made by him, some given to him or chosen by him, etc. The Christmas anticipation is HUGE here. He asks every few hours if it's Christmas yet! Heck, I'd probably have a tree up as well if the tree farms were open yet (and I'd have one dried out evergreen come Christmas).
This morning Dennis attended (via preschool field trip) his first play. The Birmingham Children's Theater group came to a local school, and all the preschool parents (of several local preschools) brought their kids to enjoy it. Though I was disappointed to see that we were sitting on the floor of a gym to watch the play (and it was difficult to hear), the performance of The Frog Prince was quite good and held Dennis' rapt attention for the full three-quarters of an hour. David and I enjoyed it as well .
Today Dennis was thankful for "the church we go to every day." It has seemed like we've been there every day lately, but we've sure enjoyed it!
