Traditions

I have watched Charlie Brown's, "It's the Great Pumpkin" for as long as I can
remember. The best part of the holidays are the traditional shows that play. Every year.

This year, we let Aid stay up to watch it with us. Now he is a Bures, so his little eyes were barely open by the end of the show. But it was still just as fun watching it with my little one as it was being the little one who got to stay up to watch it with my parents.

It brings back such warm memories for me. And I hope to be able to create memories and traditions that Aid and Grant will some day pass on as well.

I tried to explain to Aid that we were going to watch the Charlie Brown Great Pumpkin show as a tradition.

"Dolphin?"

"No, tradition. It means when you do something over and over again because it makes you happy." (Attempt to put it into 3 year old language.)

"Oh, yes mama. Aidee will watch the dolphin."

"Oh good grief you blockhead!!"
