Early White Christmas

I got a Christmas package in the mail and it had some packing peanuts in it. Charlie was thrilled. When I pulled the Christmas presents out some of the peanuts fell out and Charlie started picking them up while singing the clean up song. I told him he could scoop the peanuts up and put them back in the box. Jack of course had to get in on the action. I went in the kitchen to put cookies in the oven and forgot about the boys. Ten minutes later my house was covered in white packing peanuts. I had no idea what a mess they can make. They multiply and stick to everything. I clogged the vacuum trying to clean them up. So I picked as many of them up as I could by hand. While I was doing that Charlie ran to the bathroom and usually he will yell for me to wipe him. No not this time he came out in the living room with a streak of poop on his leg. Just then Jack flipped his plate of chicken nuggets and ketchup sprayed across my floor. I didn't know whether I should laugh or cry. I was so exhausted I just laid down on the floor for a brief moment. The boys thought that was funny and came over to jump on me. Thankfully it was nap time and Jack went down and I turned a show on for Charlie and finished cleaning up and Charlie fell asleep with me on the couch. Lesson learned no more packing peanuts are allowed in my house ever.
