"Presents" Day
Yesterday was President's Day. We were getting in the car to go and Eric says, "Mom is it still giving day?" I was a little confused and didn't quite know what he meant. I asked if he meant like Thanksgiving, a holiday. He said sure and I said yes it is a holiday but it is President's Day. He said okay, but then asked to go to a toy store and get something. He is always asking to go to a toy store. Later he asked if it was still giving day. Again I told him it was a holiday. Again he said okay. Then even later he asked again if it was still giving day. I said it is President's Day. This time Rubie piped up, "A present for me!?" Then I realized what Eric had heard me say. "Presents Day." He had been expecting a present all day long. I then tried to explain what President's Day is all about. Their eyes glazed over and so I basically said it is a holiday, but we don't give presents. Well that was disappointing.

That is so funny. I would have felt bad for not giving them presents after that. Too cute.
That is so hilarious!
