I have been going through a typical period of nesting, so I went through all of the baby and child clothes that we have. In the process, I emptied out a few boxes. David thought this big one was the best present ever. He and Rebecca have had so much fun with it. David gets inside and says, "Mommy, I want to scare you. Sister, close it." Like a good assistant, Rebecca closes all of the flaps and then waits for David to jump out. If he takes too long (about three seconds) Rebecca gets impatient and opens the box. Otherwise, they both squeal as David jumps out. It is amazing what a simple cardboard box can do on cold, snowy days when we are stuck inside.
Aren't children facinating?? Hours of fun with a box and minutes with store bought toys!! Gotta love them!!
ReplyDeleteWe aren't surprised that David wanted to get inside and jump out. He is a living Action Figure. We are a little surprised that Rebecca would knowingly help prepare a scary event by closing all of the flaps. This is a testimony of her love for her brother.
ReplyDeleteHi Kids!!Thanks for thhe invite. I love looking at your beautiful children! Another on the way!! I know what it's like to have three little ones at a time and they will wear you out but they are so worth it. Children will be a great comfort in your lives.

cute video to watch. thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of your present one year to my kids. You and Ganon lovingly drew replicas of cars on the sides of big boxes. My kids got to color them and play with them. They kids filled them with their animals and pillows and went for "rides". They pushed each other in them or sat in them to watch TV. They loved them for at least a year before they were worn thru and had to be thrown out.
