A Christmas Story

I keep telling people verbally about the stunt my youngest pulled on Christmas, so I figured I would preserve it here as well.

Caleb's birthday is Dec 19th, so on Christmas he was still full of pride for achieving the ripe old age of 4. He was showing Great Grandma Dix (my grandma, now 90) how old he was with his fingers. She asked him if he knew how old she was. Then she began to open and close all ten of her fingers, counting up ten, twenty, thirty as she went. When she got to fifty, Caleb said "Holy crap." And turned and walked away. While I was mortified, my Dad's sisters all fell off their chairs laughing, so did Great Grandma.
