One of the things that I have been looking forward to has been the opportunity to start new traditions with Rowan while holding on to the many old ones that we have in our family. Christmas is full of tradition and so I guess it is only natural that our "first" new tradition happened on Christmas Eve. Much to John's delight, he got to be center stage for the event-- Here he is reading "The Night Before Christmas" to the babies in the family just before bedtime. He insisted on providing a commentary after every line which stressed me out because I could see that baby Rowan was growing impatient and needed to hit the sac. I guess Daddy will have to learn to read his crowd a little better in the years to come. Someday the commentary will be appreciated but this year, let's just say the babes were too young to understand his cleverness.
