I have a feeling this Christmas will be all about the boxes! Mia loves to pull things out of boxes and especially loves to pull the laundry out of the laundry basket. Now she likes to climb into the laundry basket. Yesterday I left her in her playroom for a minute while I loaded the dishwasher. When I came back to the living room she was being very quiet so I stuck my head in and she was just sitting in an empty box that I had set aside for wrapping presents. She wasn't playing she was just sitting there. It was so cute. 

She found one of her Christmas presents and wanted to play with it. I took it away from her and she cried. I felt bad. Josh asked what harm it is to give it to her early, but come on it's a present. Should I have given it to her?
