Pinocchio

Sissy came home from school with an old 35 mm film canister to fill up with coins and send back to school.  They are having their annual Mini Relay for Life.  She was so excited about it that the first thing she did when we got home from school was fill it up with her money.  Fast forward to the next morning.  The canister was MIA.  I helped her look for it because I knew she would never find it on her own.  She is just like my husband.  If it is not slapping her in the face, she can't find it.  She informed me that BubbaJ had probably gotten it, so I searched all of his frequent hiding spots, but came up empty-handed. Sissy said, "I wish BubbaJ was a real boy, so he could tell me where he put it." 

I finally told her that she would just have to take it to school the next day, so I would have time to find it.  She sadly obeyed.  I am not kidding you, not two minutes after BubbaJ and I got home from dropping the girls off, he was walking around shaking that canister to hear the sound it made.  I have no idea where it was, but he obviously remembered exactly where he had put it the night before.  I'm pretty sure he's a "real boy" and a pretty smart boy at that.
