wrapped up.

well, we baked, baked and mixed up all our Christmas cheer for neighbors and friends.....
My biggest baby LOVES to deliver them for me, house to house, talking each neighbors little ear off..... I get a call....
"Amy, how cute is Charlie outside in the 5 foot leaf pile?"
so i go peek..... Turns out as he was delivering some of our bestest goodies it just so happens he feel into a pile of leaf fun....
"mama, LOOK AT THESE LEAVES?"
"i know, but where are the presents?"
"well, i had to throw each one across the way, then i lost my boots (because he wore our neighbors hunting boots that are 4 sizes TOO BIG) and had to go back, then i lost the card...you know 'cause its brown too, so mama, SINCE the treats were in a bucket (and NO, they were in a cute Christmas tin i will have you!) and safe, i just threw them across the pile but don't worry i will dig and dig until i find them and put them right there like you said on Mrs. Hill's doorstep for when they get home"
And i just smiled and kept going.... Childhood innocence is just a beautiful thing.... And i guess i need to call our dear friends and explain but luckily i know this family could not careless how the treats look anyway!!!  
Next year...I am enlisting a girl for deliveries!
