I peeked into Kailyn's room and didn't see her sleeping in her bed... looked closer, and she wasn't in her sleeping bag, either. I stepped into the room, worried, and found her sleeping in the toybox!

When I asked her about it the next day, she told me she had been sleeping in the box for a few days because her cat, Lucky, likes sleeping in a box, and she thought it'd be nice and cozy!

Grandma explained that Santa had dropped off the things for their stockings and asked her to put them in them that afternoon, since he knew the kids would only be there until after dinner. They were a bit surprised, but they believed her!
