Through the Eyes of a Child

It lights me up inside

“Peace on earth will come to stay, when we live Christmas every day.”

– Helen Steiner Rice

Holding my grandson on my lap as we watch Christmas movies is a taste of heaven on earth.

One of our favorite things to do is to make popcorn and snuggle up. I love watching movies with my grandson and interacting with the characters.

My daughter thinks I have lost my mind but what I have found is sure joy through my grandson’s eyes this season.

I have always cherished our times together when my daughter is working, but this season has been magical.

I babysat yesterday afternoon. I was so excited to watch one of our favorite movies. We popped a big bowl of popcorn and snuggled up under our favorite blanket while sipping plenty of water.

My grandson is hesitant when watching movies if he has never seen them before. We have to ease into them while hiding under the covers. Once he realizes how much fun they are, his eyes glimmer with cheer. It lights me up inside to see him so happy.

Here are some of our favorite movies:

  • The Elf
  • Elf: Buddy’s Musical Christmas
  • An Elf’s Story
  • And last but not least, an adorable shortie, Suzy Snowflake, see for yourself!

Christmas comes but once a year, but I think this year it might last the entire year!

“May you never be too grown up to search the skies on Christmas Eve.”
