I think I mentioned earlier that Addie has an obsession with flossing her teeth since they had their little dental hygiene presentation at school. Chad and Nicole use those little stick things but Addie likes the normal dental floss. Addie was so happy to see that I use the normal dental floss. Every evening she would ask me if she could “borrow” some of my floss. When I started to leave, she said “Granny, if you send me a package, you can send me a tube of dental floss!”
I sent her a package last week and included a two pack of dental floss. Nicole called this evening and said Addie was so excited to get a package and even though I thought there were some neat things in the package, the dental floss was the hit. She said Addie opened it and asked Nicole if she wanted one . . Addie said “I only need one. You can have one!” Nicole said she took it and put it up for when Addie runs out. She’s usually pretty conservative with her floss.
I thought it was funny that the floss was what excited her most. You never know what kids are going to think.

Yep, give them a toy car and they will play with the box. She’s a normal child.

When my grandson had his last birthday (11) he asked for one of those grabbers like I have. You know, the kind that you can reach things up on a high shelf, etc. He insisted on this so grandma got him one along with some other boy things. He says he uses it “all the time.” Not sure about that but kids can be so funny

Kind of like kids at Christmas that love the big boxes that the presents came in. Along with the bows and presents!

It’s an amazing child who can be excited about dental floss!
