Experiencing Christmas 🎄 In The Eyes Of A Child

The first time you saw snow

You wonder what was the cold white blanket

You were fascinated that you play in it every year

The joy it bring to watched you play

**********************

We put up a tree it was just your size.

It was easy for you to reach the branches

You placed the ornaments with glee

You were so proud, "Look Mommy I did It."

************

The first time we open presents

You just want to play with the boxes

Tore up the Christmas shiny wrappers

You smile just for simple things

**************

The first time you saw Santa you just want to cry

Riding the Merry Go Round is just what you wanted to do

You were content just watching the Christmas light show

Watching Christmas through your eyes is a wonder to behold
