Christmas is cancelled?
October 21st, 2009
Over the weekend, we were discussing the bat that had probably found its way into our bedroom walls. Laura wanted me to take a look at the chimney, as that is probably where the little bugger got in.
Laura: Can you get up on the roof today to check it out?
Matt: Sure, but I think it’s because we need a new chimney cap.
Laura: Is that easy?
Matt: I think so. I think we can just buy a new cap to put over it. We should maybe look at just covering the whole thing up, since we don’t need it anymore. The water heater vents out the wall in the basement.
Siena: (quite worried) You mean to cover it so Santa can’t come down anymore? What about Christmas?
Matt/Laura: (stammering) Uhh, no…he, ummm…he’ll be able to get in. Who’s ready for dinner?
We almost destroyed our little girl’s hopes and wishes for the Christmas season even before Halloween.
