So I pointed to the pictures on the outside of the box and told him that daddy was going to make a new table and chairs for us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/grimmfamilytales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-07-15_18-03-54_280.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2419\" title=\"2011-07-15_18-03-54_280\" src=\"http:\/\/grimmfamilytales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-07-15_18-03-54_280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"252\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"http:\/\/grimmfamilytales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-07-15_18-03-54_280.jpg 600w, http:\/\/grimmfamilytales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-07-15_18-03-54_280-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/grimmfamilytales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-07-15_18-03-54_280-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 252px) 100vw, 252px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Later that night when Dave started opening boxes the little dude insisted, &#8220;Adam help!&#8221;.
