Christmas Season Observations







Here are a few things I've observed or learned this Christmas season...





  1. When you open the gift you win in the preschool Christmas gift exchange and throw it down exclaiming, "I DON'T LIKE THIS", your father will haul your little behind out of the room in a jiffy! (This was NOT Mason - in case you were wondering.)


  2. People riding in those Little Rascal scooters may be disabled, but I quit feeling sorry for them after a lady repeatedly bumped my friend Lindsay's ankles as she shopped on Black Friday. She had a $10 toaster oven in her sites, and everyone better get outta the way!


  3. According to Mason, baby Jesus received Gold, Frankincense and Murder from the Wise Men.


  4. Even kids feel the effects of the holiday season. After being instructed to pick up his toys, Mason informed us that he couldn't because he was feeling sluggish. Sluggish? What 5 year old uses that word?


  5. The Christmas season also means final exams for students. Unfortunately, Marcus (Freshman) thought that finals were something like those standardized tests the schools periodically administer. Fortunately - his first day of finals was very light and he quickly figured out that he'd made a bad, bad mistake. There was A LOT of studying on Monday night! And just to clarify - he was at his mom's house. I NEVER would have let something like that happen. Yeah right.


  6. Apparently babies enjoy dog chew-bones as much as their canine companions. In fact, Max is so generous that he even lets the dog chew for awhile - and when Rush gets bored or Max runs out of generosity - Max takes it back and chews some more. YUCK!


  7. The little girls in Mason's class don't need mistletoe as a prompter to kiss my son. In fact - Mrs. Reimer ended up having a class meeting (yes - a preschool class meeting) to inform the girls that they should stop kissing Mason Baysinger.


Merry Christmas everybody!
