I think I mentioned in one of my earlier blogs that John LOVED Christmas and all the great decorations. One of the things he loved was the blow-up Santa that was in the front yard. Whenever Christmas was over and we quit turning on Santa, John was so confused. So, to try to make him understand, we visited the deflated Santa and I tried to tell him that Santa was "sleeping" and would be "bye bye" very soon. :) He proceeded to walk over, pick up Santa's arm, and question me with a "ba?" I'm taking "ba" as "hey mom, what in the world happened to the big guy?" We proceeded to say bye-bye to Santa and John set his arm down and walked away. Mommy was really close to putting all the decorations back up so he wouldn't have to go without them one more day...he was so sad pointing to where everything used to be...especially the Christmas tree!
I think we're finally rounding the corner on forgetting Christmas decorations...that is until we walk in the garage and he sees all the wooden Santa statues and yells "Santa!!!" and I have to rush him back inside. I guess that means we should get the Christmas decorations back in the attic before October...not that we waited until October last year or anything...you people quit judging me! LOL!

Your "bah" interpretation made me laugh. Poor John. It IS hard packing up all the Christmas stuff. Lily still looks for Christmas lights (or "wites"). Its funny because now I wished people would leave their wites on year round!! :-)
