Caden has been making "googlie eyes" over one particular cake in the Fortino's Bakery for months now. As a surprise, we went and got him the Oreo cake as his birthday cake. He was thrilled. Not only that but he devoured two huge pieces!
His favourite gift? His sister Chloe made him a coupon book. The booklet included 2 coupons for each of the following:
- 1 Day of annoying me (Chloe)
- 1 Day of me (Chloe) as your servant
- 1 Day of me (Chloe) doing anything you want
- 1 Day to play any sport/game with you
- 1 10-minute massage
- 2 hours to play video games without me interrupting
- 1 Day of me (Chloe) not talking to you
- 1 hour of me (Chloe) staying outside only in good weather
- 1 Day of watching whatever movies you want
DISCLAIMER: Spend your coupons well. They expire on November 24th. Remember that you can only use the coupons on me (Chloe) and I can say "no" or "not today". Happy Birthday.
The coupons certainly give some insight to their relationship! I'm thinking I want a coupon book from each of my children :)
We're all dragging it a bit today. It's always hard to reengage after a long weekend. I drove Claire to school early for her first exam; came home and picked up Cole who is (frustratingly) becoming habitually late (grr, so disrespectful); I passed Chloe and Caden on their bikes headed to school while I was heading home. Fingers crossed that they finished their breakfast and managed to pack a well-balanced lunch. Have to offset that sugar hangover they must be suffering from this morning.
Enjoy the rest of your week!
