Christmas bucks

Caleb has no problem with Santa. It's the reindeer he takes issue with.

In fact, every time we've pointed one out to him, he is adamant that there are no such things as reindeer.

"That's not a reindeer," he insists. "It's a Christmas buck. See the antlers?"

There is no arguing with this guy. So we've all just given up, and now we have fun pointing out the cars dressed up as Christmas bucks that we see driving all over town. Even Abby knows she's not going to win this one.

"Look Caleb!" she'll say, pointing to a picture in her book. "Santa has a Christmas buck with a red nose!"

"That's Rudolph," I tell them. "Rudolph the red-nosed..."

Nevermind.
