Coming Nahla, Coming!

We got the suitcases out yesterday to start getting our things prepped. Both the Little Bean and the Big Bean understand what suitcases mean and got pretty excited. The Poor Puppy Bean isn't quite as swift as his sisters as has no idea what is going on. When told that the brown suitcase was for her stuff, the Little Bean decided that she should test it out. The Husband even got her to lay down in it and pretended to close the top. She thought that was pretty funny! The child is so excited about going to see Nahla that she talks about it every day. Forget Christmas, she just wants to see Nahla! One of the gifts we are bringing with us is a gift bag for my mom (nothing exciting, just a few pairs of socks). Every time I speak with my mom on the phone, the Little Bean runs to the tree and grabs the gift and starts YELLING that she has a "prize" for Nahla and that she is "coming nahla, coming!" She gets so excited about this gift bag and tries to show Nahla the gift by holding it up to the phone.
