Christmas Comments

I just found my scribbled notes on my bedside table from Christmas morning.

First you need to know we left Santa gummies instead of cookies this year. He seems to like that we mix it up for him.

At 6:40 AM DB ran into the bedroom and said seriously, "This is the report on the gummies and milk: The gummies package is open. It's empty. And the milk doesn't have single drop in it. Santa is real!"

Then he ran back out to look at his presents.

A little later he came in and explained, "Santa couldn't find the right box for the Mega Rig space set, so he put a red bow on it."

(Actually I heard that Santa ordered the frustration-free packaging from Amazon, and since it came with NO packaging, he had no choice but to put it together and attach that bow. It was Santa's only option at the time, but Santa says that next year, he's going back to the packaged version. He regrets the environmental waste but the excitement of the gift lost something for DB without the visuals of what you can do with all the pieces. Live and learn, Santa.)
