last year, he enjoyed ripping paper off presents. he was introduced to santa, which resulted in this adorable image of horror:
this year, he is already talking about being a "good boy so santa brings me presents under the tree. every day."
we are emphasizing the "good boy" aspect, pointing out that throwing his food, making raspberries with a full mouth of food and talking back are not "good boy" behaviours and santa "doesn't like that."
don't even think of praising good behavior with anything other than, "you're a good boy, aidan!" i forgot what "good" thing he did, but i praised him with a "you're awesome, aidan!" to which he replied, "no! i'm not awesome. i'm a good boy!"
