+
+But next year I'm upping the specificity: we're going to have our birthday at a beach *where it's warm*.
+
+Not that I'm complaining. Cold beaches beat no beaches any day. And a couple days after our birthday it warmed up and we had a week of great, relatively warm, weather.
+
+The birthday celebrations started dark and early. Elliott was out of bed and asking to open presents at 5:30 in the morning.

+The most played with item of the day was... the cardboard box the bike came in. It was a raft, a houseboat, and several other things I wasn't allowed to know. For all the plastic in the world, it's been my observation that kids are best entertained with cardboard, sticks, mud, and the occasional bit of rope or twine.

+It wouldn't be a birthday without a pinata. As happened [last year](/jrnl/2018/12/four) there was nothing around to string it up with so we just stuck it on the end of a stick and hoped for the best. Two years running with no injuries is probably pushing it.

+After plenty of cake -- and no, it was not [waffle cake](/essay/waffle-world) this time around -- we headed down to the beach to burn off some sugar-driven energy. It may not have been all that warm, but there's pretty much no such thing as a bad day at the beach.

They have the same look of anticipation and excitement watching someone open a gift they’ve carefully picked out as they do getting something themselves.

We spent way too much time indoors. Thankfully there were a lot of recent birthday gifts to keep the kids occupied.
+
+We considered giving the kids their new rain boots a few days early, but the nice thing about storms in South Carolina is that even at Christmas, it's warm enough for flipflops.

+
+The rain let up the day before Christmas. The wind and cold came in behind the storm, but it wasn't bad enough to keep us off the beach. Looking at our kids you'd never know it was cold. They'd have been swimming if we'd let them. And we would have let them if the surf wasn't so rough. They settled for running around at the shoreline exploring all the treasure the storm brought ashore.

+
+Some friends of ours come to Edisto for Christmas every year. When they found out we were going to be in the area as well, they invited us over for some cookie decorating on Christmas eve. It was kid sugar heaven.
+
+Normally this is the sort of thing I like to do early in the day and then take the kids out somewhere and let them run off the sugar. I was surprised at their restraint though. They went over the top decorating cookies, but they didn't eating them. I mean they ate their fill, but their fill turned out to not be very many. I'd have eaten the lot and been sick.

+
+I'm sure anyone with kids can say the same, but Christmas started before dawn. I never realized it until I had kids, but stockings aren't about gifts, they're about stalling the main present opening long enough to make some coffee. And monkey bread. Coffee is even better with monkey bread.
+
+My favorite part of Christmas, or any other time there's gifts being given, is watching the kids give each other gifts. They have the same look of anticipation and excitement watching someone open a gift they've carefully picked out as they do getting something themselves. It's impossible to strip the gross face of consumer culture from Christmas at this point, but there's these little moments like this, the honest enthusiasm of giving and sharing, where I can see what it must have once been like, not all that long ago.

+After Christmas it was back to the beach to see what new treasures had come ashore. The sea is a little like Santa Claus. But real.
