Keeping Up With Kennedy

Keeping Secrets

Kennedy is not very good at keeping secrets. Like most children, she is brutally honest. I try my best to enjoy it. I know that when she is a teenager, I will have to beg her to get more then a yes or no answer.

She is especially bad at keeping gifts a secret. When she was four years old, I took her shopping to buy a Christmas present for her father. I gave her a few choices and she decided on a glass mug with a metal plate on the front. We had in engraved with her nickname for him....BIG DADDY!

On the way home, I tried to explain to Kennedy why we shouldn't tell daddy about his gift. I thought she understood the importance of the surprise. I was wrong. The first thing she did when we walked in the door was tell Shane that she got him a cup and it says "BIG DADDY" on it. He was confused by the cup reference so the surprise was still intact.

Last week, Kennedy and Shane worked on a Christmas present for me. I know it involves paint because Kennedy's shirt was dirty. She has tried to tell me what it is four times. I think she may be more excited for me to open that present as she is to open all of hers. Yeah right!
