Wherein Santa, Being Old and Gray, Gets the Date Mixed Up

.

Yesterday the kiddos woke up raring to have breakfast. Kamma made sure each one got their food of choice, and Papoo "helped".

There was great excitement in the air, for jolly old St. Nick got his DATES mixed up, and brought some Christmas goodies just in time for Kamma and Papoo to share the "joy."


It was hard to wait for daddy to come back from his morning work.


Presents were handed out to all the GOOD girls and boy (that's all of them) and then the great anticipation ensued.


Finally all the big people were ready and the unwrapping commenced in earnest.


The clothing items were tossed to the wayside like so much useless tripe - - -


But the toys received MORE than their just share of squeals, glee, and hugs.


And for most of the REST of the afternoon - - -


Three little ones played in peace and harmony with their new delights.


It was a huge success.

If you'll look very closely in the BACKGROUND, you will see a couch, on that couch you will see a pillow and a jean covered knee. That would be Papoo, busy "helping."


And as Mackinley would say, "It was CRAZY!"
