The Dogmother Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 It's wonderful, isn't it? I was just thinking about how lovely Christmas was when Rosie still believed... I do miss that innocence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 You are so lucky to still have little ones that believe in the magic of it all. Enjoy, it passes all too quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 It does, I cried the first year that Rosie stopped believing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 We put a mince pie and a glass of sherry out for you know who last Christmas (our boys are 18 and 20 ). I'm resisting the urge tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Six year old still believes, not sure about the eleven year old but the other two don't. I want to go to bed now but they've only just all gone to bed! I'm hoping for a lie in tomorrow..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Don't know why I stayed up to put the kidlings stockings out (13 &15)....i should have realised I would be awake waaaaay before them ....still no sight nor sounds from their rooms....we didn't do the nibbles etc for Santa this year, 1st time I think One year we did "snow" footprints through the house, including up the stairs to the children's room at my mum's....I was a little tiddly so took the prints into the bathroom for a comfort stop, but forgot to come out again.....spotted by DS! Smart Alec Long may the magic continue...I miss it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 My nephew left his dody (dummy) on the tree for Father Christmas this year. I'm yet to hear how he went on last night without it. When asked the other night what he would put out for FC he replied a mince pie and a glass of water. His daddy said that FC might want something better than water to warm him up ( thinking sherry or brandy). My nephew just replied.....a cup of tea?!!!! Classic! He was so excited on Xmas Eve that his behaviour was apparently horrendous. He stole some yule log..twice! Yes very magical! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soapdragon Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Well, I think we got away with it for another year- the Duplo car wash arrived (via ebay) in a shoe box so had to explain that an Elf sat on the proper box; accepted without a question, bless him! Do hope that we can last thro till next year ..... have the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy to go!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
