With all that is going on in the world this holiday season. There is some comfort to know some things are still the same -little girls love Christmas. Here are the things that haven't changed since I was little.
1. The Nutcracker is still magical. They both sat with rapt attention through the entire performance, except when stage whispers were utilized to ask specific plot questions. (yes, I am aware there really isn't a plot in the nutcracker, hence all of the questions.)
2. Advent Calendars are the highlight of the day. It is hard to wait for your turn to put up an ornament or open a box.
3. Silly Christmas songs are the best. Their father made up a song to the tune of Christmas Time is Coming. It is all they have sung or wanted to sing for two days now.
4. Christmas dresses are still slippery and itchy.
5. There is nothing more exciting than a wrapped package with your name on it.
