This is the first year that we have really gotten the concept that presents under the tree have stuff IN them. It has been pretty funny listening to Alyssa ask us what is in the presents in Target (the cardboard cutouts hanging from the ceiling) and telling us that she will open them when they come down and see "What IS it?".
Luckily for us, she has an awful lot of self control it seems because while she asks every day so far (day three of gifts under the tree), she does ask us before ripping paper off. She also puts the gifts back under the tree when told 'no, not until Christmas'.
The very beginning of our gift pile, organized by Alyssa. |
Any of your kids jump into the gifts before Christmas without permission? I'm sure it'll happen around here someday.
