Earlier, I shared with everyone how our day on 12-12-12 started. Now, here is the rest of the story.
Uncle Aaron made Christmas cookies and shared some with us a few days earlier. We were eating the last of Uncle's cookies on 12-12-12, and the boys were a little sad. Jackson looked at me (seriously) and told me that Uncle would have to make some more cookies for them!
After I finished laughing, I reminded the boys that we had made cookies with Mawmaw at Thanksgiving, and we had some in the freezer. They immediately wanted to get them out and eat them! I told them we had to wait just a little bit longer...as we needed to save some for Santa.
Both the boys were thoroughly confused. Save them for Santa? WHAT???
I explained that on Christmas eve, we set out cookies for Santa, and carrots for the reindeer.
Jackson quickly scowled at me, and said, "No cookies for Santa. I am NOT sharing my cookies with Santa." I tried to explain to him that we have to be good boys and share, or Santa won't bring us any presents. Jackson thought about this for a bit, but still insisted, "I am NOT sharing my cookies with Santa. He can have carrots too."
I guess cookies are better than presents to my little guys....but I'm afraid Santa is going to be very disappointed!
