Day 16: Baby Jesus Watching
This was by far our most favorite day with Twinkle. I hadn't taken out Jesus and the manger because I was scared that the girls would get a hold of the fragile figurines. I decided one night that they really needed to see and hear the REAL story of Christmas. They were so excited to find Twinkle but even more excited to hear all about the birth of baby Jesus. I must admit I was crying the majority of the time while snapping pictures because they listened to EVERY word I was saying (you will see why in a second). This is a memory I will NEVER forget.

| This is when the tears started flowing...Mackenzie had just heard that the Wise Men brought gifts to baby Jesus so she sweetly laid Ducky down next to him and told me that was her gift to him (I was speechless). |

| With my mouth still hanging open, Isla then followed Mackenzie's lead and placed her milk next to baby Jesus (tears were rolling at this point). |

Day 17: Mickey Hiding
Day 18: Gift Giving (Last day)
Since we were going to be in Pennsylvania on Christmas Day, We decided to have our own little Christmas at our house. It was a total surprise to the girls when they woke up in the morning! They found Twinkle in the middle of all the presents with a note in her hand. It stated that since they had been such good girls that Santa decided to come early, but not to worry, he would also return on Christmas Day at Nana & PopPop's house! They were soooo excited!

| See you next year, Twinkle! |

There is nothing sweeter than giving up your best friend and your milk as a gift to baby Jesus.
ReplyDeleteWe all will miss Twinkle but look forward to his antics next year.
