Last night I walked in the door carrying four three-foot tubes of Christmas wrapping paper in cute patterns. One has penguins on it and I’m sure my son will love it. Well, he noticed first thing. “Crap,” I thought, now he’ll know all the presents are for me and not Santa. Luckily, it doesn’t really matter this year since he just turned two, but next year I bet he’ll catch on. I have to be smarter.
As he gets older he notices more and is wise to my acts of deception – he can spot a single green pea with his eyes closed and still manage to spit it out. I’ll have to pay more attention and get organized earlier so that I can sneak everything in at night. Thank goodness we get a couple of years of practice to learn these important milestones of parenting.

LOL! our son is turning 2 just a few days before Christmas and i have been storing the presents in a locked closet! š am procrastinating the wrapping process… he saw a huge game box as i came home the other day but was not tempted to open it… phew
thanks for stopping by – he actually manages to eat the nori just fine. it depends, if it becomes too soggy and chewy than he will spit it out, but in most ocasions he chews it just fine š
