I am laughing SO HARD right now!

There is a little boy that lives in this house, maybe his name is Jameson, who is having a birthday in one short week.



I made the mistake of mentioning that I may have gone birthday shopping today, not really thinking anything more about it.

A little while later, Jameson came and asked me if he could borrow the flashlight. When I asked him what for, he said he was looking for ants under the bed.....MY bed.

After a couple of minutes, he came out and let me know that the underside of my bed was ANT FREE!

WHEW! That's a relief!

Next, I hear him rummaging around in my bedroom again. I'm still not really paying too much attention because, for some reason, he always prefers to be in the Master Bedroom over his own.

After a few minutes, he proceeds to tell me he's been checking the hinges on my closet door for Squeaks....

"Mommy, I promise that it was making some sort-of squeaking noise a little while ago. I guess it just does it once in a while."

He then starts looking at this-and-that in my closet, checking out boxes, and suitcases. I get tired of standing there, so I tell him he needs to get out of the closet and go play.

I go back to what I was doing, and then I notice he is pacing back and forth all around the house.

Then it dawns on me.....

"HE'S LOOKING FOR HIS BIRTHDAY PRESENT!"

I start laughing to myself as he walks by me and heads into the dining room.

OK, Jameson NEVER goes into the dining room, so I ask him (laughing) "What are you doing in there?"

He says "Oh, I'm just checking out the light switches. I just want to make sure they are working correctly......and they are, SEE?"

After pacing around in circles for a few more minutes, he finally stops and sighs and says "I wish super powers were real...I wish I had X-ray vision."

"Why do you want X-ray vision baby?" I asked.

"So I could see through stuff...like, I could look up at the television and see how to make a television, you know, not like look into closets or anything."

I can tell now that it's going to be a LOOOOOOONG week.

And oh, in case you were wondering where I hid his super-de-dooper birthday present....


It's in the bottom of Chelsea's closet. He's not allowed to play in her room unless she's in there, so he will NEVER find it...lol!
