I ALWAYS decorate "early" for Christmas. Veteran's Day holiday means...putting up the Christmas Tree. (I actually put it up Saturday this year...thanks Scott!) It's way too much work if you don't have time to enjoy it. I've never understood those" 2 weeks before Christmas" people.We've never been "stocking" people though. We do lots of fun gifts, but no stockings. I have 2 for decoration only. Well, this year Abby decided she wanted her own stocking. She saw a cute one at Lowe's, but I suggested we keep looking to make sure she found the one she really wanted. So today we were off to find Abby a stocking. While we were driving, I said..."Abby, what if we all got new stockings and had them monogrammed with our first initial? If we put you in the middle, do you know what that would spell?"( Well- I was thinking Scott, Abby, Wendy- "SAW".) I wish you could have seen Abby's face. She looked at me and said (very hesitantly) "DAM". She was thinking Daddy, Abby, Mommy:)
I have never laughed so hard- not to mention I was trying to drive!!!! Kids are sooo funny.
Needless to say, I had to call my mother, sister, etc. and share the story. When I told Scott, he immediately said, "Sounds like a blog story to me." So here it is! (And no-we did NOT get monogrammed stockings!!!!)
