One of the best moments of Christmas morning was surprising Ethan with the gift he wanted most. Lanny bought him a mountain bike - a really nice mountain bike (thank you Pepe Jacques, Melanie and Meme Eliane!) - a couple of weeks ago. Our sweet friends allowed us to store it at their house (sorry for all the head bumps, Kate) until Christmas morning.
We opened our gifts in order of size this year. I honestly think every single thing Ethan got was something he'd been drooling over for months and months. We are so grateful for a family that loves to pay attention to what makes our kids smile, and for their generosity in making their Christmas morning dreams come true. Once the kids were finished opening their gifts, I said, "Hey Ethan, can you please help Dad get something out of his car?"
"What? What? Can it be??!"
"Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!"
"I got a mountain bike! I GOT A MOUNTAIN BIKE!!"
This is the first bike that is big enough to fit on Daddy's bike racks.
They are super stoked about venturing out to the mountain trails this summer.
I love that they share this hobby.
And I love making my kiddos smile.
