E-Man's Straight Talk w/ Santa

E-man and I went to Home Depot last night to get some things for Mommy. He spotted a bunch of Christmas stuff all over the store and now wants to me to decorate our house like Clark Griswold's in Christmas Vacation.

He also has been bugging me about this Spider Man game that he wants. The other day he was nagging me the whole way home from school about it. And having read the "Parent's Guide to Handling Annoying Children" I answered as all parents do, "Why don't you just ask Santa? Maybe you'll get it for Christmas."

Well, for the past 3 days E-Man's been all over me to help him write a letter to Santa. So today I finally caved. Here it is...enjoy!!


Disclosure: You'll notice the part where E-Man talked about being "mad at it"...we'll that actually makes us pretty proud. He's been working really hard at his school on identifying and verbalizing his feelings. So even if it is a toy car that he's mad at...we're thrilled!! ;-)

Abegail put the tooth under her pillow and then refused to sleep in her bed. She wanted to sleep on the floor...and then so did the other two. An hour and a half later, I walked into their room and A & E were asleep in E-Man's bed with the blanket pulled up over their heads. And Annie had sneaked away to HER bed. I asked Abegail this morning if the tooth fairy came. She said...

Today is Abegail's first day of school !!! And like our parents did for us...we made the kids pose for pictures! Unfortunately I wasn't able to take a picture in focus until the bus arrived. Oh well, Annie was picking her nose anyway. Abegail got onto the bus like a real pro!! She was soooo excited! As you can see...Annie and E-Man were skeptical. Frankly, E-Man was quite concerned.
