Snacky Sixth Sense



It's official, my boys have inherited their daddy's snacky sixth sense.

Let me explain.

Coach has this ability to detect a newly bought snack and find it even when it is hidden.



Let me give you an example. One time I had bought a pack of M&M's with some gift bags, wrapping paper and other stuff. When I got home from the store I just threw the bag in a spare bedroom meaning to get to it later. I didn't tell Coach I had bought the snack. As soon as he got home, before he could sit on the couch and take his shoes off, he found the snack. I promise you, Coach walked through the house and found that bag of stuff and came out with the M&M's. I was so shocked! I don't know how he found them. He never even goes in that spare room. He looked at me like I was crazy, like it was no big deal that he just found a random bag of M&M's.


So Jackson and Everett seem to be magnets like their daddy. We will be in the house and the boys just show up with a random oatmeal pie or snack I have bought that they didn't even see me buy or was totally out of their reach.

I don't know how they do it. It's like they float in the air straight to the treat led by their noses. It must be some type of guy radar or homing device that only my dudes have. It's really neat when you think about it. I have hidden things on purpose just to see how long it takes them. I have yet to be disappointed!

I have a friend that is an excellent "hider" of all candy and junk food. Then I goofed up one day at her house and discovered the statsh while I was watching her boys and she had to relocate everything. Oops...
