3 Little Monkeys

Our prophet counsels us to, "find joy in the journey" and "make memories for tomorrow," so I have been making a more concerted effort to do that. These guys make that a pretty easy job, and a fun one too!
Enzo was getting into the Christmas spirit and enjoying egg nog with us after decorating the tree and he said, "I like 'egg knock', Daddy do you want 'egg knock'?"
Then, when I told him that Mary was the figurine from the nativity that was in blue he questioned, "Mom, is this 'Barry'?" as he held up Mary. He's learning!
Then Arianna pulled needles from the tree and began scattering them around the house...why? She was 'decorating'. So we had pine needles on the window sills, on the counter, the table, the speakers, the entry table...you get the picture. She has loved getting the house ready for Christmas though! She loves the music and the tree and the lights and the books etc.
Then there was Daddy's homecoming! Everyone was thrilled to have him back, but Massimo just couldn't take his eyes off him. It was the funniest thing! And he wouldn't let Daddy take his eyes off of him either.
