12 Days of Christmas

Brandon did the 12 Days of Christmas for Joseph. We got the idea from Brandon's magazine, The Friend. Joseph got an envelope each day with a slip of paper that said, "On the 1st Day of Christmas I'll show my love for you by...." The 12 days were...color 1 picture, 2 cups of hot chocolate, give 3 hugs, pick up 4 shoes, sing 5 songs, read 6 books, make 7 soccer goals, say 8 words in Portuguese, give 9 kisses, fix 10 things to eat, play catch 11 times, and give 12 cookies. I thought it was cute and wanted to share.

Brandon is just the cutest! Did he come up with those thoughtful gifts himself?

um...no. it took mom a long time to come up with things that brandon could actually do and get them in a good order. brandon had a good time doing it though...maybe we'll make it a tradition and as he gets older he can come up with the gifts by himself.
