Kiwi, at two years old, is single-handedly wrecking Christmas.
Ok not really, but this toddler is destroying Christmas decorations at an alarming pace.
“Be very careful,” she says as she pulls an ornament off the tree, despite our “one finger” rule, which I designed to let her sort-of touch the fragile baubles without actually inflicting any harm.
In spite of her promises/self-warnings, though, ornaments end up in pieces within seconds.
So far, several penguins, two angels, a snowman, a chairlift full of animals Eric had previously declared “unbreakable” and another handful of decorations are awaiting repair—or, more likely, the trash—in a makeshift ornament graveyard atop the microwave. And we still have a week until Christmas—plenty of time for more casualties.
