Santa Suprise

For Christmas our sister-in-law Laura gave Steven this really cute santa tin filled with goodies for Christmas. Once we made our way through all of the sweets (thanks Laura they were yummy) we gave Camden the tin to play with. He has fun with it. One morning we opened the tin and found some of Camden's little toys inside. That was a fun surprise. After a couple of days of this I made a comment to Steven that we enjoyed his little surprises for us every morning. Steven told me that it wasn't intentional but he was just trying to save space in Camden's toy basket. After hearing about this Steven turned this into a tradition. Steven now fills the tin with different toys every night. Every Morning Camden and I open the tin to see the suprises (and sometimes even a little love note for mommy). It isn't a huge deal but it sure keeps Camden entertained for a while.

You're welcome! I'm glad they were yummy. It's so awesome to find a present that can be used all year-round! I definitely didn't expect this to be that gift, but you never know when there is a little one in the house! I miss you all so much!
Love, Aunty Laura

That was a neat idea, and very sweet of Steven to leave a little love note too. It's the little, everyday surprises that make life fun.
