It's very important to David and I that Gavin know and remember the true meaning of Christmas. I'm very thrilled that he (well, we) are able to go to a Christian Preschool that teaches the true meaning of Christmas. They had Birthday Parties for Jesus last week!
Gavin loves to play with the decorations that we pull out for Christmas. I'm not kidding when I say I don't think his toys have been touched since November!! Not even his horses or rescue heroes!! His favorite is his Nativity Set. This thing has been the BEST purchase we have made. We have such an opportunity to talk with Gavin about the birth of Christ through playing with this and we LOVE to hear him playing with it now independently. He tells the Christmas story over and over.
(Of course the "typical 4 year old" comes out sometimes too. Last week the shepherds were looking for their monster trucks so they could go to the Rodeo)Seriously though, Gavin knows all about the Nativity and he looks for them everywhere. If we see a house that has lots of decorations he's always quick to put out if they have a "tivity"!!
He was especially thrilled this weekend when Daddy was in a LIVE Nativity!! He was Joseph and Gavin just thought it was so cool!! Before he left that evening he told Dave "Daddy, be sure not to drop baby Jesus!!"
Gavin was very proud of his Daddy!
