scout: i don't think i believe in santa.
finn: why?
scout: no one has ever seen the REAL one.
finn: no one has ever seen god, but people believe in him.
scout: well i don't.
{if i had dog ears they'd have been standing straight up. i was completely tuned in}
finn: well i believe in santa about 95%. i only doubt about 5%. {he's learning percentages in school}
i have a plan though that will tell me if santa is real or if it's mom and dad.
let's sleep WITH mom and dad on christmas eve and if they get out bed for a while,
then we will know it's them. if they stay in bed then there really is a santa.
scout: ok, sounds like a good plan.
OMG was my first thought but neither have come to us 'officially' yet with their plan.
good thing as i will need a little time to think on this one.
this idea is SO finn!
seriously, i don't think i'd ever think of that as a kid.
i was the kid who snuck out of my room to peek but santa had already been there.
i'll report back on what goes down christmas eve.
in the meantime, i thought i'd share this photo of my two questioning kiddos.
it was taken by the talented kelly at bubba-loo photography a few weeks ago
scoutie is still trying to master smiling naturally...it doesn't come easy for this 5 year old.
{notice the puffer vests?}
