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!
