Does God know Santa?

We've done a little Christmas decorating around our house this past week. Ethan and Kevin went to the Christmas Tree Shop with me and bought a few items that they thought were "perfectly beautiful" decorations for the house. Not exactly the items I would have picked out but they're excited and the huge gold ribbon wreath only cost $2 so what the heck.

Since the boys were so good in the store I let them each pick something out from the clearance rack for themselves. They both chose Christmas themed sticky notes. After we decorated they both decided they'd use their new notes to write letters to Santa.

Ethan's share day is on Mondays so he decided to bring in the sticky notes he wrote (all by himself - I will be scanning them in to share with everyone soon) to Santa for his share. He thanked Santa for Christmas. And then told him he wants Hot Wheels Battle Force 5 - whatever that is.

So it was very sweet last night when I put Ethan to bed and he asked if he could say his prayers (thank you Grandma). Here's how the prayer went:

"Dear God,

Thank you for this wonderful day. Thank you for Christmas. Please tell Santa that I love him. And I love his reindeer.

name-a-jesus-christ Amen."
