Five on Friday: Holiday Highlights

1. The boys got some small bottles of cologne on Christmas Eve. Twelve year old G said, "I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do with it," until he read the back label and said, "Ooh, it's flammable - now that's intriguing!"

The next day he said to his brothers, "That cologne we got last night? It's flammable. So would you rather smell like an old candle or make a really cool video of a car on fire or something?"

2. Four year old A on Christmas morning wanted to know if she could have one of the tic-tacs from her stocking. "Pleeeease, Mommy?" she asked and then sing-songed, "The red ones have Vitamin C in them!"

3. Homemade gifts from the kids. Gift certificates, a peace sign decoration and a flower hair clip:

4. Six year old Z: "I feel bad for Grandma, she had to spend like almost all of her money to buy everybody gifts."
Me: "Should we bring them back to her so she can bring them back to the store to get her money back?" (thinking of course he'd say no)
Him: "Okay."

5. Snuggling in my bed this morning, four year old said: "I'm tired of opening presents."
