what do you mean that's not for me?

So my future m-i-l had a Christmas present delivered to us. It's a big box, but I'm not sure what it is yet, because I'm waiting for my bf to get home so we can open it together (she said we could open before Christmas). But Nathan is certain it's for him, because he's been on top of the box since it got here and has managed to halfway open it already! It's hard for him to understand that not everything is for him.

Well, he is correct in a sense - he'll end up with the empty box!

My boys also will claim any box that comes in the apartment, but then they know that all boxes are their's they just have to wait until I get whatever is in the box out. Sometimes however I do have to remind them that I need to open the box to get the item out.

No box is safe in my house either.

Patches and Tiger are the queen of boxes in our house too
