December 11: Picking out a present

I had something else planned for today, but Koen had his own ideas.  He is so excited to wrap up and give other people presents!  Of course, his gifts come from what he already has...a favorite toy, a book, or anything he stumbles upon around the house that looks like a good gift.

Today he insisted on wrapping a present for Tysen.  It's currently sitting under the tree waiting for Tysen to unwrap it on Christmas.  I loved seeing Koen get so excited about giving something special to someone else!!!  And this trend has continued.  As I write this a number of days after December 11, he's since discovered gift bags and tissue paper and has been gifting and regifting at a steady pace.  Now he wants the person receiving the gift to open it immediately.  I wish you could hear Koen and Tysen's exchanges and their enthusiasm in these gift givings...completely joyous and sincere...just the Christmas spirit!
