This year saw a shift in focus for us as Jane is now able to somewhat understand the general concept of Christmas. By mid-December she had all the Christmas dialog down, and seemed most intrigued by snowmen, which she would loudly identify when sighting.
Within fifteen minutes on Christmas morning she had the routine mastered. We were impressed with the very workmanlike approach she took to opening the seemingly endless procession of gifts. Good thing, too -- with two sets of very loving and generous grandparents, we could have been opening gifts until March.
To our delight, her favorite gifts seemed to be the Cabbage Patch Dolls she received from her grandparents and the Curious George book we purchased for her.
