Christmas Lights

Since it was finally warm enough tonight to take the kids outside for a long period of time I decided to take Heidi on the trip of her life. Literally. There was so much time to kill that I put Trudi on my hip and took Heidi in my hand. When we finally walked far enough down to the homes that were lit up with Christmas lights Heidi's voice became loud enough for the whole street to hear her. "LOOOOOK! LOOOOOK!" She screamed. "COLORS!!!!" LOOK!"

In all her life I have never seen her so excited. She couldn't look at all the homes fast enough. Every house that was lit up I would gasp, "WOW!!!" Feeling my excitement she knew this was something huge. She kept running along side me, wanting to see every home that was lit up. She was so loud that I was sure the neighbors would come outside. There were times she even tried to get on the grass to get a better look. When We came across some robotic deers I would say, "Look, it's Bambi!"

Trudi was also greatly taken by it that all she did was point in shock. She knew if her sister was excited, her mom was gasping, then we were walking the paths of heaven.

I'll probably do it again tomorrow night because it was so funny so much fun.
