Christmas Eve with Isaac

The festivities began Christmas Eve by attending the evening Christmas service with my parents at their church in Alabama.  Since we arrived right on time the church was full and of course the last seats available were right up front in the second row.  This actually turned out to be great since Isaac had lots of new things to keep his attention.  He loved looking around at all the bright poinsettias and glowing candles.  While we were singing Christmas carols he decided he would try to assist Papa by helping to grab at the pages of music.   During the actual service Isaac was entertained briefly by the preacher's voice but that quickly wore off as he became a bit restless.  So, what does a cute little boy do in church to keep himself occupied?  But of course, look over momma's shoulder and flirt with the ladies sitting behind us.  He smiled, cooed and then bashfully buried his head against me. Even when the lights were dimmed and everyone's candles were lit he looked around at all the flickering lights and held onto me and Mr. Puppy.  Isaac is usually very laid back with a casual demeanor and this event was no different.  He was a very good boy and seemed to enjoy another first.
