Post 18 - Christmas Too Early?

My seven year old asked me the other day, "Why is there Christmas stuff out when it isn't Thanksgiving yet?" I asked him what he thought about that and he responded with, "We should eat turkey first." To him This was how it should be. His yearly calendar is discussed from one holiday and family member's birthday to the next. Seeing Christmas decorations out before Thanksgiving is not natural from his perspective. I agree with this thought. What do you think?

  1. Oh yes he is so right, the stores only think about the money and forgetting tradition. It is an honor to be able to sit around the table with family and break bread together.
