Put That In Your Blog......
So now most of the children are back at school, it's time for the Christmas adverts to start running on television. This has resulted in Katie wanting everything she sees advertised. This morning, whilst giving a running commentary of what she wants for her forthcoming birthday and Christmas, Daddy said to her that she could pick one present for her birthday; one present from Father Christmas and one present from us.

ReplyDeleteI think you're right. We do tend to get a bit carried away with presents though. We will have to reign ourselves in before she turns into a Dursley.......
DeleteHaving seen madams playroom 3 sounds sensible but knowing Daddy it is more likely to be 52! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHmmm yes, the playroom, where all the toys she currently possesses and never play with live......apart from the dolls of course!
