Thank you, LA29. However, if I need a good cheer, I just go down into my basement and imagine it filled with Browncoats. ______________________________________ CO of the 76th Independent Battalion http://76thbattalion.homestead.com/index.html Ever marched with the Independents?

See, the xmas decorations would just be wasted on me, as I would have only been doing them for the boys. Doesn't do anything for me, or make me smile, so I am not going to. That makes me remember that I forgot to talk to Ami about which of the "normal" lies we are going to tell our kids as they get older. ~jimi SFC Alexander, Medic for the 76th Indepentent Army Battalion http://76thbattalion.homestead.com/index.html Ever marched with the Independents?

There are "normal" lies?? hmm is there a list? Can anyone tell normal lies or do you have to know what they are? HUGS RIMG LA- yeah Annie's done a number on the tree. There are no ornaments below the 3 foot level. She's stripped them all off to play with. Also we had to move the "shish" ( fish) ornaments up high 'cause she takes them down and tries to put them in water.

MSG, I think my brother and I used to be the same way with the ornaments. RIMG, that is something I would not have considered...the "normal" lies thing.

Oh come on don't take Santa and the Easter bunny away. Plus you don't want yours to be the hated kids who tell everyone there is no Santa. RIMG- I see what you mean about normal lies... cool thought. My mom even puts a sugar bowl out for the reindeer along with the cheese and cracker plate for Santa( rationale he must be sick of cookies) "A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort."- Albright

Msg that's so sweet leaving something for the reindeer !Dylan leaves hot chocolate for Santa, he thinks Santa must be thirsty and cold while he drives the sleigh . RIMG _ I'll let the boys keep thinking those normal lies are real .They are innocent for just so long, and it's so gorram cute ! Bryce ************************************

Yeah and she'd let the dog lick the bowl of sugar so there'd be evidence of the reindeer eating it:) "A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort."- Albright

Those are both very cute, the sugar bowl and the cheese/crackers. The only problem I have with the normal lies is that they are lies. I am doing all that I can to never lie to them, and I don't want to have to tell them somewhere along the line that I did. Maybe I am not looking at it the right way. I suppose I just want to keep them from being let down when they are told/discover the truth. ~jimi SFC Alexander, Medic for the 76th Indepentent Army Battalion http://76thbattalion.homestead.com/index.html Ever marched with the Independents?

The way I see it ,they're bound to be disappointed in us eventually no matter what we do .So better it be over something innocent & happy like Santa or the tooth fairy. Someday they'll know we cared enough to let them believe in the magic for just a litle while. Bryce **************************************

PHOENIXROSE You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

Morning everyone! My dad always told me that Santa was the Christmas Spirit; a symbol that embodied generosity. So I didn't ever say there was no Santa, I just didn't really think he came down the chimney with presents []

I must admit I don't put out any special decorations for Christmas. I'm not a Bah Humbug kind of person. I just don't take the time to do it. Part of the fun is decorating with someone. Besides there are a ton of Holiday things everywhere you turn at this time of year. I guess I'll just have to decorate the thread.
