happy heart

a kleenex under his chin
mom. for you.
let's try this again.
and again.
okay, one more for mom!
and all those who want to see it in action...
ok mom.
only one more.
that's all.
and, can you guess what "eh" means?!! :)

not only kleenex's
but food too.
oh my!
this is how he eats when he really likes it!
op! one more!
you don't want cooper on your team...
he might score for the other team.
brack kept saying, "no cooper, no more!" ...but then he kept marking that he scored.
it was funny.


so pictures about cooper that make my heart "happy."
and a story about brackon...

we were talking about santa tonight
brack was asking how he leaves us presents
how he gets in the house
etc. etc.
then he talks about how we need to leave santa a present by the door
"but not open it" he says
and then he says, "when he opens it, he will say 'aho ho ho, i like this'"
lol.

then we start talking about how santa is always happy
brack asked why he is always happy?
i said, "i don't know, maybe because he is always giving people toys, do you think that would make your heart happy?"
he said, "yeah, i want to sell all my toys and candy, so i can have a happy heart!"

how precious.
sure made my heart happy! :)

it got me thinking about santa,
how could it not, right?!
after all that santa talk.

i remember believing in santa
and i remember my dad whispering to my siblings to "let her believe"
i knew santa wasn't real, but i wanted to believe
i wanted to believe in the magic of christmas

i love the symbolism's of christmas
and i can't wait, one day, to explain the true symbols of christmas to my kids.
