355/365


It's gotten a little funny around here.  Neighbor gifts are in full swing and we seem to have 3 or 4 gifts on our doorstep every time we come home.
When we are home, the kids rush to the door to see what treat has come our way, I usually hear Avery yell back to them as she is shutting the door, "Merry Christmas!!! Thank you (and she'll name whoever brought us a gift)"

Tonight we came home and we didn't have any treats on our doorstep.  Brighton ran to the front door, and came back with his head bowed, a little lower lip puckering action going on and he came and told me, "MOM, no one left any treats for us tonight!"
Oh my goodness, I know I should have used that opportunity to teach him about not expecting things all the time, but I was laughing too hard at his little face. He looked so flippin cute slouching with a little pout and dragging his feet into the kitchen.  It makes me laugh just thinking about it.  I wish I would have had my camera to take a picture. Soooo funny! It made my night.  So thanks a bunch neighbors!!!  You disappointed my kid tonight! Geez!!  (But at least I got a laugh out of it)
