I'm calling Santa
Any parent out there that wants to use this, please do so. The technique is simple but effective.
The other day my two wonderful, corporative, never do anything wrong kids wouldn't leave each other alone. They kept on bugging the heck out of each other and my wife and I just couldn't get them to "quit it". So I whip out my kick ass BlackBerry 8310 phone and proceed to call Santa. "That's it!" I said, "I'm calling Santa to tell him to skip our house this year." My kids went instantly quiet. I went on to tell him that my kids weren't acting nice and that we can do without this year. I went on to tell Santa that I'll call him back if things change. During this whole "conversation" my kids watched me without blinking. They couldn't believe that dad had the direct line into the big man. When I hung up, I told them that they have a little time before the cutoff date to change their tune.
Good news. The next day I picked up Whitney's play phone and made the call into the big man again to put a good word in for them. Again, they were amazed that I was talking to Santa.
From our family to yours, have a Merry Christmas!
