   Thanks for the post, it cheered me up! Yeh, why doesnt santa give parents gifts? I know, thats because Santa doesn’t come to our house as we don’t have a chimney! oh dear I am so tired!

   Yes our boys are the youngest grandchildren on my side so its getting harder as they near their teens, they dont have the same excitement as littlies! and us adults always seem so serious! Last year Christmas night was at our place and i was determined to bring smiles to faces so we played playdough pictionary and it was such fun! !!!! Laughing about the silliest things in life was medicine to the soul!

   RE Chrismas lists, our kids seem to know now that even though we ask them to write them, we never seem to end up with something from their list! Its good to know what they are thinking, then conclude how selfish we can all be, and for some reason, we like to keep them thinking even more when they see thier wrapped gifts! But isnt it so hard to disguise them when thay are odd shapes?

   A farewell joke!

   Did you hear about the Beverly Hills school Christmas pageant? Two kids dressed as Mary and Joseph and they are on their way to the inn in Bethlehem. On the other side of the stage, a boy in a shepherd’s outfit is on a mobile/ cellular phone, calling for reservations.

   Have a safe and memorable Christmas Lightening

   The only Spencer I know is from Thomas the Tank Engine. I have a ds5 who is crazy about Thomas.
   I am very lucky in that ds5 is very happy with what ever he gets, including socks lol
   Merry Christmas

   My kids used to start their christmas wishing fairly early in the year. They’d stick with one or two things they REALLY, REALLY REALLY wanted, I’d go out and layby the items, then a week before christmas they’d hum and hah and think that MAYBE, just maybe, they’d like such and such. Grrr. They never wrote letters to Santa though. My mum tried to interest them in this, but they twigged fairly young that Mum’s secret name is Santa.

   Thanks for including my childs letter . He was stoked when he saw it as a star letter in the paper. BTW, the dad of the shotgun kid has been getting heaps of grief from the locals…. just goes to show you have to be careful what you say around your kids - they repeat EVERYTHING!

   Neitheir of my boys will tell me what they want for christmas ths year. One of them wouldn’t talk to Santa either. The joys of them being 2 and 4. LOL.

   Just asked them again now and got “Presents” as the answer. Too Easy. Santa shall bring them new carseat harnesses (as DS2yrs has outgrown the weight requirement for his inseat harness, but isn’t big enough for moving out of a harness and booster, figured the younger brother couldn’t get a harness without the older brother getting one.) THey are also getting walkie talkies and an assortment of other small bits.
   Then of course all the rest of the stuff from us. Far too much.

   Have a Great Christmas.
