Kids-in-a-box

Apparently Matt used to love playing in boxes, as I'm sure every little boy does. This morning the kids decied to play in one of our cash register boxes, they took turns 'locking' each other in the box! (sorry the videos are sideways)

Funny things they say...

So today Amberlyn was going to a birthday party for her friend Hannah. We went and picked out a gift. I told Amberlyn we would go home and wrap it, then go to the party. She says, "I wish we could wrap it like Santa does."

???? ...umm.... what????

I asked her what she meant. She said she wanted to wrap it how Santa wraps things at Christmas.

Blank stare....

"Please explain what you mean. How does he wrap it?"

She says, "You know, with that paper... not like in a bag."

Me, "You want to put in in a box and wrap it with wrapping paper instead of putting it in a gift bag?"

"Yes."

"Santa has lots of elves to help him wrap all the presents like that. We don't have any elves, and not very much time to wrap it, or you'll be late to the party. We'll just put it in a cute bag."

"Okay..." (under her breath) "I wish we had some elves...."
