Quote of the day!

SO our kids receive 3 gifts from Santa because that is what the wise men brought the Savior. A little cheesy I know, but it keeps us from getting out of control and keeps a little bit of the reason for the season in the gift giving part. Max thinks LONG and HARD about his 3. He takes it very serious. This year he told Santa the 3 things. It took him a while to remember the 3rd thing and I thought Santa was a bit impatient for my boy. I wanted to yell at him and say "DUDE YOU ONLY BRING 3 GIFTS...LET THE BOY THINK! SO in Target he showed me something he wanted (not one of the 3 things!) I told him I thought it was a little expensive for Santa to make AND I bet Santa had all ready made the gifts he asked for. Max went on and on trying to figure out a way that one of his gifts could be switched. Finally I told him to let it go. About 10 minutes later he said, VERY HUFFILY, "But the Wise Men brought the Savior REALLY COOL GIFTS!" Then he let it go.

It made me both laugh and cry. I know he knows what the 3 gifts were. He calls them "Gold, Frankincense, and MUIR (my maiden name)." I just don't know if he KNOWS what they all are. I love that little boy!
