So dada has to work tomorrow (Christmas), so the Henderson's Christmas is today! While mama and the kiddies are still sleeping, I wanted to quickly post some pics from last night's Christmas eve before I don't have time! We went the homemade Christmas route this year, and Eirene made Mae a little (almost too little!) nightgown to match the one that her new doll is wearing (she'll open it this morning!), and she made Ike Superman pajamas. Last night--our Christmas eve--we first read the Christmas story from Luke 2 in the Bible taking a moment in between verses to explain a little to Mae. We then watched Joy to the World, the Church's relatively new nativity movie. It was so fun to watch Mae pick out things from the story we'd just read in the scriptures and understand what was happening! We then opened our new pajamas, and Mae instantly felt like an angel in her white nightgown. She flipped over a little laundry basket and started the angelic chorus. Ikey soon followed by flipping over another little basket and standing on it right next to Mae and joining in the songs! It was a beautiful night, and I am really excited for this morning when they wake up!!! More to come...
