Day 21–Tiny Tots with their eyes aglow

Day 21 – Tiny Tots with their eyes all aglow --

One of my favorite Christmas memories when our boys were young was this…

We had gotten them each a remote controlled CAT construction toy.  After everything else was opened and wrapping papers cleaned up, we brought these special gifts out. 

We had wrapped the boxes with only paper over the ends.  DH stood around the corner and pressed the remote.  When the engine started up, they went crazy.  Then he moved it forward and it broke through the paper at the end of the box.  The expression on their faces was absolutely priceless (see top picture).  Good times!
