Little Red Charlie: Dec. 17

LRC is in Cooper's and Katie's hallway today, surrounded by special images. He's leaning on a painting by Steve (depicting a part of our family room). He's resting on top of family photos. And he's staring at the word "Believe" -- one of the most important phrases of the Christmas season.

The only trouble with this spot is its instability. He fell twice this morning, while Cooper and Katie were packing their backpacks on a bench just below. Katie cried both times, realizing that Mommy would have to pick up Charlie and place him back -- all at the risk of Charlie losing his magic.

If you look closely, you'll notice two marshmallows by his side. He's already eaten two. When he finishes his fourth, the magic will be fully restored.
