For human kids, 12:01 am Christmas Day is the big moment to
jump out of bed and see what presents are under the tree. Here at the Woodpile,
12:01 am the day after Thanksgiving is when the little ‘munks all go stir
crazy. This begins the official countdown to Christmas and the first day the
U.S. Post office begins to accept letters to Santa. They were all up at the
crack of dawn writing their letters to Santa. The Post Office had to open early
just to accommodate them. Having completed this all important task and having
way too much energy, we parents kicked them out of the burrows and told them to
play around the Woodpile. This is the only time we could get a few hours of
sleep. It was a gorgeous fall day and before the first nor’easter of season
dumped a foot of snow.
Instead of chatting on social media with their cell phones,
they setup an impromptu photo shoot. They pretended they were at a prestigious
show for chipmunks. They were strutting their stuff and competing to be the
cutest of them all. I’ll let the readers decide who won “Best in Show.”
This little lady appears to be preparing for “The Voice” TV
show. She is practicing her chirping with a bird voice coach.
