Healthy Snacks

My friend Christie watched Gavin for me for a bit today. Gavin asked for food and Christie asked, "What would you like?" Gavin replied, "Something that's good for me and healthy."  That's my boy!

Disclaimer:  This is the only thing my son has said in weeks that I agree with. In fact, it's the only thing he's said in weeks that didn't make me want to send him to military school for preschoolers.

 

 Santa for the Naughty

Gavin's elf on the shelf has been flying back to the north pole reporting "thumbs down" for Gavin the last few weeks. Santa even sent him a special email message that he was still on the naughty list but that he had time to make it to the nice list by listening to his parents.  All of this has done little good, which is evident of last night's bedtime challenge.  An hour or so after putting him to bed it sounds as if he's jumping off his bed and throwing books around the room. (Books are the only thing in his room other than the necessities.) Checking out the damage, there are books in piles everywhere. I asked him what he was doing.  He replies, "I'm Santa bringing presents to all the naughty kids." I said, "Oh yeah, well I think Santa is a little bit quieter."
