It is true what they say, "From the mouth of babes." Madelynne is quite the young lady and is really growing into her own. She has the best stories that she makes up and tells anyone who is listening, like the witch that flies around her room at night or the "bear monster" that lives in her room. Every night, after dinner, we end up dancing. It's her favorite thing to do. We pump up some music and dance around the house, being completely crazy until bed time.
We started the Elf of the Shelf tradition with her this year and, thus far, it is so much fun to watch her get excited to find where "Go Go" is every morning. I need to write down some of the things she says because they are just great. The magic of Christmas is so much more fun through her eyes than it ever has been with just Brad and I. It truly is a joy to watch her get excited about Santa and wish Jesus a Happy Birthday. It's special.
We also had our first official snow and, despite how cold it was outside, she was dying to play in it. So we enjoyed bundling up, heading out into the frozen yard, and making snow angels, going down the slide on the playset, and swinging.
She has been quite the helper with cleaning the house and laundry. She is always wanting to help with wrapping presents and practicing her cutting skills.
We can't wait for Christmas and beyond. Until then, enjoy some fun pics of our goofy, silly, loving girl.
