the other day a local school held a christmas fair with a host of craft activities for kids which provided odin with his first opportunity to make a christmas ornament.

when he was making it we told him it would make the perfect gift for a grandparent, an idea that delighted him. but having given it more thought it would seem like we, his loving parents, should get first dibs on his very first christmas creation.

but if we do keep it, that would make us lying parents and bad children. perhaps a reasonable compromise would be to have him make a bunch more ornaments for all his grandparents ( and great grandparents! ) and tell everyone that the one they got was the first one he made 🙂
