Kathryn: Morning.
Bay: Mommy!
Kathryn: Mommy?
Bay: Is it Christmas?
Kathryn: Yes.
Bay: OK. I want you to make gingerbread pancakes and then I want you to sing Christmas Carols all day long. Oh, and baking. I want to bake!
Kathryn: Oh honey, stop. I know that you and I are really, really different. We always have been. I love all this stuff and you don't. I need to stop forcing it on you.
Bay: Mom, I love every single thing about our Christmases. That's not entirely true. But, every family has a little crazy and if I have to have crazy, I prefer your crazy over anyone else's.
