Bear was not saying too much about Father Christmas this morning. Instead he is hanging around in a Marc Jacob t-shirt (I had to look him up), Harry Potter glasses and waving a duplicate wand from Harry Potter which is an extreme threat to the ornaments.
As for the great big huge ginormous box of steering wheel that he absolutely had to have - he hasn't even plugged the dratted thing in. In fact the greatest playtime so far today has been with an extremely inexpensive expandable ball that I got as an afterthought with a supermarket delivery. However the pack of Harry Potter Top Trumps is coming a close second. Bear has learned to riffle shuffle and after a few hard fought games the cards look years old instead of being brand new in a cushion cover this morning.
I should explain. When bear was little I forgot his stocking so we put out a pillowcase and in the morning he had his gifts in a small minecraft shoe bag that had been stashed for presents. Over the years he's got new book bags and sports kit bags in this way as part of the Christmas tradition. This year he didn't need a bag of any sort so I got a Harry Potter Ravenclaw cushion cover to serve as a 'stocking' and fill with little bits and bobs. Bear has done very well for gifts this year. I've promised that tomorrow we can try out the chemistry set.
Most important part of the post - I hope you all have the most amazing Christmas time with lots of love and joy around you and that you have your loved ones close to your heart. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you and your family from the Center of the universe....oh sorry I mean Canada.
ReplyDeleteCanada sounds utterly awesome. If I could cope with the cold I would be over there like a shot! And you live dead centre of Canada! Merry Christmas to you and yours! LM x
DeleteMerry Christmas to you, too, and bear and your husband, of course. Enjoy this day. :)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and thank you for passing by! LM x
DeleteHappy Christmas! Sounds like it was a really good one. It was really snowy here. Luckily hubby is good at driving in it else I probably would have stayed home instead of going to MIL. We all piled in the van and I sort of closed my eyes while we travelled along. Luckily it isn't too far away. Middle son had to work so we're doing his Christmas today on Boxing Day.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas! So sorry you had to drive in snow. I would have had my eyes shut as well. Hope you had a great time with your son. It's hard when duty calls over the holidays. LM x
