3 more sleeps!

The excitement is building..... How will they last the distance?!? 

The magic of Christmas is alive and well within the realms of my home!  Cards made for Santa....Christmas music blarring....checking we have enough carrots for ALL the reindeer........

However, I'm still a bit upset at the kids for asking, 'is there another present?' while at a friends house swapping Christmas gifts. 

** Insert exasperated sigh **

I have two very lucky children who perhaps (even after serious amounts of 'schooling' from me) are failing to grasp that most people get just one gift, and are incredibly grateful.

Perhaps next year when they are likely to get just one larger item instead of 10 small things they will get it.  Perhaps.

Until then I will encourage they to be the ones to pass out homemade things, biscuts and the like to others and hopefully remember the lovely feeling they get from doing so.

Well it's worth a try!
