We went caroling tonight with some friends, which was a highlight for all of us. On the way home, we were trying to talk about how meaningful it was and asked the kids about their favorite songs.... but Rayna just kept singing "Shrek the halls with boughs of donkey" all the way home. This was NOT a song we had caroled.
And last week, the ever Mr. Literal-and-Practical Strider was listening to "What Child is This?" The only comment he had about this beautiful (and rhetorical) song was, "This song is weird. It's too easy! It's Jesus!"
He also doesn't like one of the Oak Ridge Boys' Christmas songs (this album from 1982 plays daily at our house throughout the whole Advent season) called "Christmas Carol" because he thinks it's dumb to write a carol about a carol.
So, the kids' wackiness notwithstanding, the merriment continues. And we wish you all a Happy Christmas Eve Eve!
