Connor and Christian were pretty proud of a homemade trick they conjured up. They cut a hole in one of our unused backpacks...another hole in one of Chris' very favorite shirts (without asking) and put a blanket around both of their waists to hide the fact that they were attached. They then came to me and said "Mom, unzip the backpack to see what is inside." So I did, and up pops Christian's little head. How could I get upset about the shredded shirt? I couldn't. All I could do was just smile and pretend to be scared and shocked by the head in the backpack. Because that's what good moms do.
P.S Later on that night I had a nice little chat about not cutting things without asking.
