At some point, I bumped the coffee table where we had at least a dozen ornaments hooked and dangling from the edge, staged to be hung on the tree. They all fell down from the vibration. (Bear with me here.)
Ella stayed involved through the whole process; Carson's gaze remained where those ornaments fell. His gaze broke, and he darted to the kitchen to climb the cabinets.
He came back with a box of golden raisins and a whisk.
Huh?
I was riveted. As we all pretended to be hanging the ornaments, we were watching to see what would come next.
Step one: use tiny fingers to dig raisins out of box.
Step two: use tiny fingers to insert raisins into the middle of the whisk.
Step three: hover whisk over mouth.
Step four: tap whisk until the whole thing vibrates, thereby dumping raisins into mouth.
There really were no words. We all just sat there glancing at each other like, "did that really just happen?"
He just gobbled the raisins with a satisfied grin...then did a happy little march around the room, the whisk as his new baton.
PS: The tree looks great!

I love your tree because most of the ornaments are in one spot where the kids could reach! They were so excited when I walked in, they were jumping up and down so I would come and see "their" tree.
