He Makes Me Smile

It's been a busy 6 weeks. In addition to all the normal craziness surrounding the holidays, Jeff and I both celebrated our birthdays and our 6th anniversary. Despite the chaos, it's been full of delight. Graham loved Christmas last year, but this year it's at a whole new level. I just stared at him and watched the delight in his eyes as he watched the The Polar Express one night. I swear his eyes were sparkling!

Graham just makes me smile...especially at Christmas. His imagination, his choice of words, and his facial expressions just make my day. Here are a few of Graham's humorous holiday quotes:

"He's a mean one. Mr. Munch."

Graham's review of the movie White Christmas. - "I don't like the shooting. I DO like the singing!"

After we returned home from a Christmas Eve party, he had this conversation with himself: "I didn't think they were going to have cookies. But they did have cookies. (short pause) Silly Graham!"

He also told his Grandma that Santa was stinky...probably because of his reindeer.

After he got a candy cane from the Santa at preschool, he said, "It tastes like cement." His teacher stated, "You mean it tastes like peppermint?"
"No, like cement," Graham said.

Needles to say, he makes my heart melt.
