Crossing another item off my birthday list …
“Which one should we get for her?” H asked.
“Let’s let her decide,” I said.
We dangled a few options in front of our 10-month-old baby, and she looked at us with a question in her eyes.
“Which one do you like?” I prompted her.
“Pick one,” H said.
And, without hesitation, she grabbed the owl.
Her choice isn’t much of a shock, considering it’s the animal she’s seen the most this year (with the exception of our live kitty cat). Her room is decorated with owls. She has plush owls. Of course, I was pleased because I love owls, hence all the owl decoration.
This is one of the first Christmas traditions we’ve started with Alexa. Each year she will pick out an ornament to add to our tree. Then, when she starts her own family, we will give them to her.
