Something about these holiday activities makes all of us act like kids. J, for example, is normally very serious, but he always has a great time making paper snowflakes at Christmas, decorating the Easter eggs, etc. (Actually, one year he had a little too much fun and made an egg with a picture of a naked lady on it.
