Mornings with Malakai | On Christmas
Good morning friends! We’re here with another “Mornings with Malakai”, Christmas style. I love hearing the answers to the questions 3 year old Malakai is asked. It’s a great reminder to find joy in the simple things and to look at the world through the eyes of a kid.
Alyssa (Malakai’s mama) asked Malakai questions about his thoughts on Christmas. I always get a kick out of his answers- I know you will too!
Where does Santa live?
In the reindeers! I mean, WITH the reindeers. He tells them “giddy up” and he’s very nice. He gives me presents…just not right now! Not until Christmas.
(let it be known that he says “Chrimpas” for Christmas, haha. It’s the cutest thing!)
Who is your favorite reindeer?
The biggest one I’ve ever seen!
What is your favorite Christmas song?
Jingle Bells.
What do you want for Christmas?
A Zurg gun!
What are we going to leave for Santa on Christmas Eve?
I think he would like gingerbread cookies
And for the reindeer?
I think the reindeers want carrots and potatoes, just not the yucky potatoes because then they could die and Santa would be very sad. (I don’t know where he gets this stuff, I swear! haha)
What do you think Santa will get Leia for Christmas?
I think she wants popcorn. You and daddy want popcorn, too.
What makes Santa’s sleigh fly?
His reindeers! They run really really fast and then they jump really really high like this: (demonstrates)
How does Santa know what you want for Christmas?
I don’t know! But you do. (HAHAHAHA this one killed me!)
How does Santa fit all of those presents into his sack?
He just uses the small presents…but they’ll grow up really soon.
What is Mrs. Claus’s job?
She gets little presents for Santa and bakes him gingerbread cookies. But if he doesn’t eat them all he will just tell her “Sorry!”.
Why do we put a Christmas tree up in the house?
Because we need it because it’s almost christmas!
How many reindeer does Santa have?
10! Just not 21.
Why do we celebrate Christmas?
Because we gotta hurry before the Grinch comes!
Thanks Alyssa and Malakai! Have a wonderful Friday everyone, and a great Christmas!!









If we are lucky enough to be blessed with a baby, I am going to do something similar, what a great collection of adorable interviews. And what a great gift for him when he’s older, to look back and read them.
Out of the mouths of babes
SO CUTE! Thanks for sharing.
This is the cutest & such added such sunshine to my day, how adorable & funny!
Once again, clear demonstration of sheer genius at 3 years of age… I understand he has it on BOTH sides of the family! Sadly, there are also crazy people on both sides. But I think I would rather have crazy than stupid…
