RAPT

It turns out that our Franklin is a Type B un-wrapper. He takes the package and explores it. Then, making a decision about the first incision, he carefully removes a layer of wrap and takes a look at what is inside. Then, again, with a very judicious air, he removes more paper and as the gift emerges, he works methodically to get it out of its cocoon.

When the toy is disengaged from the wraps, and only then, he takes it and goes beserk playing with it; running, jumping, throwing it into the air, and growling vigorously at it. He took one present at a time from the stocking. We Type A package rippers could take a lesson from this methodical approach. The whole process took over an hour.....rapture rationed.

One item, a very large ball, was on the floor, unwrapped this morning when he got up. While he smelled at it and went to visit it from time to time, he got that it was not 'time' yet. He is one surprise after another.
