Well as the boys get a little older, we tend to sleep in a little longer each year. When Mom forced everyone to get up at 8am on Christmas morning even Alex managed to get up on the first request (on most school days this would have taken double-digit requests/threats before Alex would make it out of bed). So even though Alex and Sam might not be quite as excited as they were when they were 4, Christmas still holds a little special something for them…. hopefully they will never out grow that part of the holidays.
