St. Rose breakfast with Santa

December 2014


We just attended our third annual breakfast with Santa at St. Rose Early Childhood Center.  We ate breakfast in the the classrooms where the kids attend "school", made some special crafts, rode the St. Rose version of the Polar Express, and took our picture with Santa.  I am sad that this is the last year Catherine will be in the ECC as it has been a wonderful little school for our kids.  The years are really starting to go by quickly.  One perk to them getting older is that this year was the first time BOTH kids were excited and elated to sit on this guys lap! 





The crafts this year were fun.  We painted baby Jesus and did sticker nativity scenes.  Logan made a baby jesus with a paper plate and also made a manger for him to sleep in.  They had necklaces you could string with bells to give to Santa's raindeers.  We only made one necklace and the kids had a slight hiccup with sharing it so it did not last long in the house.



Catherine made this ornament at school and I love it.  She understands that Christmas is the celebration of the birth of baby Jesus but she gets confused some times and asks why we are not celebrating the birth of her new cousin, baby Laura.  Her innocence and perspective warms my heart in so many ways. 



I am getting a bit to big to ride the train but was secretly excited that Catherine wanted a partner.
