Christmas memories #3 Baby's first Christmas

Tweet

Our son Robert was fifteen months old at his second Christmas. Dale and I were a young couple with our first child, but excited to play Santa. Our tree was a small table top tree that I lovingly decorated. Robert had been walking for several months already and one morning I was in our tiny kitchen when I heard a commotion in the living room. I ran in to see the tree on it's side with two little fat legs standing underneath it! He wasn't hurt and I think we put a little fence or maybe his play pen in front of the tree to prevent a repeat performance. He had big blue eyes, blond hair, and the sweetest little angelic face that was way too pretty for a baby boy. That was such a special Christmas and Santa brought him several fun toys. My aunt and uncle sent him his first tree ornaments (a little deer and a snowman) that have been on our tree every year since. Wonderful memories!
