For the love of a good cardboard box…

Charlie and Wendy discovered both the joy of cardboard boxes and playing together as siblings this evening.  IMG_1353editCharlie hid in the box and then would pop out suddenly.  This is the first time Wendy has been mobile enough to really participate.  She would crawl right up to the closed flaps, shrieking and waiting for him to come bursting out again.   The suspense was just killing her!   I can say without exaggeration that it was the most fun Wendy has ever had in her life.  She was so wound up that she didn’t even seem to notice the few times Charlie whacked her in the face with the box flaps coming out!  I picked her up a couple times just to calm her down and her heart was beating so hard that I could feel it banging against my hand. 

Wendy:  There he goes…he’s going in again!  Oh this is going to be good….!IMG_1365editWendy:  (shrieking laughter)IMG_1364edit
