Way back when the daughter was a toddler, this little reindeer delighted her, with its whimsically lit nose, the Christmas tunes it played and the movement of its legs. Her Nana had bought it for her and its entertainment value diminished as our daughter grew older. New batteries, a good dusting of its antlers and he is now entertaining another curly-headed sweetie. His joints make a little more noise than they used to, but then again whose don't? Twenty-five years old and he can still bring a smile to my daughter, "I remember him" when I set him down in front of the Grandlove's curious fingers.
My quest for the Fisher-Price record player was rewarded with a hands-on approval from the Grandlove. He used his farm people to help him investigate the turntable. The songs were familiar and he smiled his approval. Made the hunt for the record player so worth it.
After enjoying a delicious meal, the two guys put their feet up and enjoyed a special movie. Who doesn't like
Mary Poppins? It was a nice, quiet day. In this hustle-bustle world we live in, it is nice to relax, share a good meal and appreciate the people in our world.
Sounds good.

Little ones make Christmas so much more delightful, don't they?
