holiday children's musicThe holidays, that is.  Even though we’re still a couple weeks away from Thanksgiving, the first signs of Christmas are popping up everywhere  — and I’m not complaining!  The truth of the matter is that I love the holidays, and I actually get excited when I see the first Christmas-themed television commercial of the season.   My family (well, minus my husband) finds it completely acceptable to break out the sounds of the season (like these, these, and these) at the beginning of November.

But don’t worry; I keep my Christmas tunes to myself (car and iPod only!) until the day after Thanksgiving.  This is especially important since I work with children who can only take so much holiday-induced excitement at one time.  I’ll stick with Ten Little Turkeys, the Turkey Dinner Dance, and Thankful for a few more weeks :)

After all, I’m super excited about Thanksgiving, too.  Spending time with my family, eating a delicious meal, and being reminded of just how much I have for which to be thankful?  Yes, please.

I am curious, though…am I the only one who is already humming The Christmas Waltz, Home for the Holidays, and the like?  Say it ain’t so!
