Getting the kids ready to go outside isn't typically too big a task, but somehow Aidan managed to lose his socks once and then one shoe and one sock in the process this afternoon. We searched high and low for the missing sock and shoe. It was nowhere to be found. This seems to be a running theme with me lately! Finally, I decided to look in the (undecorated) Christmas tree. Sure enough, I found a sock. I called Aidan to the living room. "Were you throwing your socks and shoes into the Christmas tree?"
"No"
"Am I going to find your shoe in there?"
"No."
Without too much effort, I spied a little patch of brown.
I asked him if he thought that was good behavior, throwing his shoes and socks into the tree. He said "no." I let him know that he was right, and I walked back to the family room...laughing to myself. (Serves us right for having an undecorated Christmas tree sitting in our living room for a MONTH!!...are you reading this JNK??)
