We do our Christmas shopping early in the Williamson household.  So for everyone else who would like to get a head start on things for my kids, just find some boxes in your garage and send them our way.  We are going on day #4 with a box I saved for Mark Garrett.  I cut a whole in one side and left one end open.  Sometimes we put a chair in it and pretend it’s a car.  Other times we turn it on its side and pretend its a television.  Or we use it to line up all our cars in like a garage.  It doesn’t really matter.  We are highly entertained by it even as I type. 

And I just got the brilliant idea to teach Mark to Swiffer last week.  Why haven’t I done this before?  He loves it!  And it helps me out.  Not the usual kind of “helping” that Mark provides.  But it actually works to have him clean the floors.  It’s not much, but I figure it could only help to have a little less dust on our floors.
