Sophie started us on the "how many more wake-ups?" kick as her way of counting down to special events. Every morning she will say, "How many more wake-ups until Daddy gets home from his business trip?" or "How many more wake-ups until we go to Erie?" It seems to have started a trend and now everyone in our family has started counting wake-ups!
When I was a little girl and I went to Sacred Heart, I can always remember making paper chains to use as a way of counting down to a special event. I decided it would be fun for the kids to make one that would help us countdown to Nana and Papa's BIG arrival in Belgium.
Every morning they would run downstairs to see whose turn it was to rip the ring for the day. We started off with about 20 rings, but I started taking pictures when we got to 10.
