countdown to christmas


image: supermommoments.com


this morning at the crack of dawn,
scout came into our bedroom announcing he was going to "cut the chain".

he was referring to the paper chain that we made 2 weeks ago to
help the boys {scout especially}count down the days until christmas.
time is a tricky concept for young children and this chain has helped so much.
i only wish i would have thought of this years ago when finn was his age.

the boys are enjoying it so much, this might become a new tradition for our family.
we can keep as simple as this year's chain {all white}or fancy it up using  variety
of papers, patterns and colors. oh how i love this idea!

only 2 chains remain as i sit and type this post tonight.
by 6:30am tomorrow, scoutie will have cut another one,
and one will remain. it will be christmas eve.

with my shopping done, cards out, and presents wrapped
{only possible with help from auntie jen tonight},
i'm relaxed and am ready for christmas.

i'll end with a sweet photo i snapped of scoutie at his
preschool class christmas party last week.
he was really enjoying this sprinkled covered cookie!
