golf balls for christmas

Lucy and I wrapped up a box of golf balls for her to
give to Nick for Christmas.

A short bit later,
Nick came home from a Christmas dinner.

Lucy lost no stride in leading him to the tree, picking up the
present and said, all in one quick breath,

"Nick, this present is from me to you. It's golf balls!"

We all busted out laughing.

And Lucy burst into tears.
The poor little dear.
I'm not sure if she was upset over our laughter or that she
blew her secret.


Here's Nick consoling her.

Then, with peaked interest, he quietly asked me,
"So are they really good golf balls, Mom?"

LOL, what a sweetheart. Both of them actually.

At 7 Maya is only just now figuring out that she's not supposed to spill the beans.

I can't believe how much your Lucy sounds just like my Ruby! Ruby has spilled the beans on a number of Christmas gifts already, and actually picked out her gift to me while I was with her! I said "but if you get this now I won't be surprised on Christmas" and she said "It's okay, Mom. I'll surprise you next year."

bless her heart. I earned the nickname of big mouth frog at the tender age of 3 for telling my dad about the heated shaving cream dispenser we were giving him for Christmas. Sometimes the surprises are just so darn good we can't hold it in.

That is so cute and I can totally relate. We bought our grandson a skateboard for his birthday and our son said "Ok Aidan I cant tell you what you got but its got a skate and a board in it". Ha HA HA HA...Way to funny. I wondered afterward if he thought it could be anything other than a skateboard. lol
