Christmas Eve

Jonah and Nora are beyond excited for the big Santa visit tonight. Jonah finally understands the whole thing enough to really anticipate it this year, and Nora gets caught up in his great excitement. After bath tonight, while we were waiting for Jonah to get in his pajamas and join us for The Night Before Christmas, I asked Nora a few questions about the day…

Then Nora unwrapped the book.

And Sean read it to the kids.

Jonah and Nora took turns putting the cookies they decorated on a plate for Santa.

They placed it gently by the fireplace.

We all held our breath as Nora carefully carried the cup of milk over.

The kids both made notes for Santa. Nora wanted to roll hers up and tape it. Here’s Jonah’s.

    Dear Sharp’s,

    Just got around to getting into the computer and
    wanted to report how much we (Gran, Larry, and Grandad) enjoyed the Christmas Eve pictures and the telephone calls when Jonah and Nora told us about Santa’s visit on Christmas morning. Love from us.
