Our Annual Tradition of Frustration...

Christmas afternoon and a few days after are the perfect time to listen to this. I think most parents can relate. I tried and tried to search for this song but cannot find the link to post the actual song to our blog. But here are the lyrics and they say it all!

Toy Packaging
By Sara Groves and Ben Shive

Nothing makes me loose my cool like toy packaging
ask the kids to leave the room for toy packaging
I have no choice the money’s spent
I’ve worked for hours to make a dent
I guess it’s anger management
Toy packaging

Nothing makes me lose my cool like toy packaging
Ask the kids please leave the room, it's time for toy packaging
Every adhesive known to man is holding down this Robot man
my self-esteem is in the can
toy packaging

In the old days you could hold a box and shake it
and hear the pieces rattling around
My eyes tear up at these grommets, tape and twisty ties
Remembering that beautiful sound

Nothing makes me lose my cool like toy packaging
Kids you need to leave the room, mom's opening toy packaging
I'm sorry you have to see this sight
You must be brave, no please don't cry
I promise it will be alright
I hope to have it by tonight
nevermind this dynamite
toy packaging
