"We're going to have to work on a little packing," I told the boys. "I'll go check the weather report and then we'll start packing."
Adam ran upstairs while Mark followed behind me and read over my shoulder.
A few minutes later, Adam came running downstairs, lugging his little suitcase.
"Look at this, mom!" he said.
"What do you have?" I asked.
"My suitcase! I packed!"
I thought I'd better go see what the little dude had packed, just in case he'd overlooked something he might need.
Inventory packed:
2 pairs underwear
4 pairs socks -- three black and one red
1 pair shorts
1 pair long pants (sweats)
3 short-sleeve shirts
2 long-sleeve shirts
1 pair short pants/sleeves pajamas
1 pair long pants/sleeves pajamas
1 random short-sleeve pajama shirt
1 random long-sleeve pajama shirt
1 random pair of long pajama pants
1 random pair of short pajama pants
Not bad, but a little tweaking needs to be done before we're entirely ready to go. But it was a commendable effort.
