Christmas Eve Day, 1999 - Nephew Nicholas is in the dryer, while Jessica closes the door. Nichole (standing) and Jackie look on (only the top of his head shows). While the adults prepared for the holiday festivities, nephews and nieces took care of the really important stuff, having fun.My first inclination was to fuss at them. (I channeled my parents, scolding me for such shenanigans.) Didn't they know how dangerous it was to hide like that? What if Nicholas couldn't get himself out and nobody found him? He'd die!I realized, then, how many of us were looking at him...no danger of him not being found. I decided to enjoy the moment, to laugh with the children. I'm glad I did.
