Gingerbread Mans can turn ALIVE!!!

find the book here.

In Cameron's class at school, the gingerbread man has been sneaking in their classroom and the kids have to look for him all over the school. Cam said that when his teacher was making gingerbread cookies her husband opened the oven and one of the cookies jumped out and ran away. So Cam talked me into making Gingerbread Man cookies today. He was glued to the oven and kept telling me to open it to see if one would run away. Much to his dismay ONE did not run away, at least while they were in the oven............

When he came in from playing outside, ONE of the Gingerbread Men was missing!!!
Cam -"Mom! there are only three gingerbread mans. OHHHHHH!!!!! Gingerbread Mans really do come ALIVE!" "Colby did you see it jump out of the oven?"

me and colby -"no we didn't see it. colby was in the shower and mom was putting Hayden to bed."

Cam- "well, we better look for it. I will look outside, you guys look in the house." runs outside and asks all the neighborhood kids if they have seen the Gingerbread Man running away!

me and Colby- "we can't find it Cam, lets just get ready for bed."

Cam- "OHHHH, I am not going to be able to sleep thinking about that Gingerbread Man! I wonder where he is?"







Cam- "Oh my gosh, look!!! There he is, ON MY PILLOW!"

mom- "WOW, how in the world did he get there Cameron? I didn't know that Gingerbread Mans really could come alive, but I guess they can, and he knew to come to your pillow!!"

Cam- "OHHHHH!!!! I can't wait to tell Mrs. Winterose that my Gingerbread Man came alive and I found him on my bed. I am going to sleep with him tonight but he will probably run away again and I will have to look for him in the morning! And look at his face mom, his mouth looks a little different, like he has been eating or sleeping or something. OHHH HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it, Gingerbread Mans really do come ALIVE!!"

this had to have been one of the cutest things I have seen in my "mom" career. He really truly believes that his Gingerbread Man came alive! Colby was a good sport and played along! Now I guess Mr. Gingerbread Man is going to have to run away again tonight. Hmmmm..... where will he hide this time?
