Packed and Ready to Go

Micah was up at 4:30 this morning. Normally the big question would be Why, but I think it was effectively answered by the question of What. He was carrying a backpack, and inside said pack were his essentials. When I told this to the family, Josh said that Micah has these things packed every morning. And every morning Josh puts them away after unpacking the bag. Micah's essentials include:

1 black lightbulb (a light bulb comes in quite handy, and if it's a black bulb your parents won't notice you as quickly since it doesn't shine brightly)

1 battery (for energy, duh)

A pack of playing cards (to relieve boredom)

A trapping book (one never knows when this might come in handy)

Josh's bank (money is always good)

Deodorant (one can't smell)

I don't know about you, but it looks suspiciously to me like the boy is trying to run away from home. One of these days, he'll actually accomplish it. Can we Duck Tape him to the bed?

And Josh unpackes the bag everyday? What a great big brother! No doubt he will unpack the bag before Micah actually runs away!

MacGyver could make a helicopter out of those things. Hope Micah never finds him . . .

Sounds like Josh has a lot more to worry about that you do. Unless Micah takes to swiping your credit card. :)
