Christmas Love...

My kids are awesome. Who wouldn't love these smart, funny, caring, silly kids? I had another "I love being a mom" moment today except this time it was via Junior. Since he learned to write, I have been getting lots of notes. Sometimes they involve calling his brother names, sometimes he slips them to me as I am talking on the phone or to company, such as this one (it says, "can I tell you a secret?")

More often than not though, they are love notes, such as this one that was folded up into a paper airplane and thrown at my head:

So today, when he passed me a sealed envelope with the words "crismis luv to mom frum Junior" (I left the original at my sister's house...) and told me it was a Christmas present, but I could open it today, I expected whatever was inside to be some kind of sweet nothing. I tore the envelope open and shook out the 2" x 2" paper that was inside. On it was lovingly inscribed the word:

"Poop"

I hope you laughed as hard as I did (come on, you at least smiled, right?)

Little boys are awesome...
