Because we usually spend our Thanksgiving in Indiana, we have gotten into the habit of setting up our Christmas tree the weekend before the holiday. This way it is already setup when we get home and don't have to worry about it. When we get back from Indiana we are so tired that setting up the tree became a burden and not a Joy. This way it's always a Joy.
Well, the tree is setup in the playroom and last night we were playing in there with Samantha. Other than the candy canes on the tree, Samantha is generally pretty good about leaving the tree alone. However, last night I turned around and Samantha had a FedEx bad in her hands that I just emptied. She was walking around the Christmas tree putting ornaments into the bag. It took me a second to realize what she was doing and then the funniest words came out of my mouth. "Samantha we don't trick or treat off of the Christmas tree." It's an honest mistake, how was she to know that you only trick or treat at Halloween. I still giggle when I think about it.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
may angels watch me through the night
and wake me with the morning light
Amen
And Samantha very proudly replies "All Done".
It took a couple minutes for Karie and I to stop laughing.
