Each year at Christmas time, Matt and I set-up the Dickens Village. Matt enjoys remembering Christmases past spent with family. His Rank Grandparents gifted him the pieces as he was growing up. The kids love to push chairs up and point out all the different pieces. It works magic for calming kids.
A very kind Great Aunt in Ohio was smart to know that the kids would enjoy opening a few early packages. Somehow she knows which puzzles we don't have!
Claudia was so proud to be the helper with baths. Vincent and Julianne very compliantly backed up to the side of the tub for Claudia to wash their back-ends.
So we celebrate, not every day... but today for the precious gifts of children and the relationships they share.
