    Default Santas list has changed totally today!

    From wanting a scooter and a pillow pet (cushion) for ages the list has dramatically changed to not wanting them now(or ever) and wanting a hello kitty hideaway and walkie talkies....
    Why now?
    Pressies are bought and wrapped ...grrr!
    Do we stick to our guns and say that is what was on her list when she asked...or do we do the mad chicken ...trying to get the new pressies....and hiding the others until birthday time!

    It was a total panic...but kinda sorted with a goat...a 3rd world goat (not a in the back garden goat) type of adoption...as in santa gets what was origionally on the list only as he has only a short time to get toys ready.....

    This is the exact reason my kids don't get asked! Lol
    They write a letter to Santa saying they've tried hard to be good and could they get a special treat for Xmas.
    So Xmas is always a suprise as they've no idea what they are getting!
    I know what they like and they've never been disappointed yet.
    I kinda decided early to do this and try keep it this way,don't want them thinking they always get what they ask for.
    Nor sitting with the argos book pointing! But they always appreciate what they do get.
    Makes life easier for santas helpers too lol
    Everyone is a genius,
    but if you judge a fish
    on its ability to climb a tree,
    it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.....

    I've been writing to Santa for the last 9 years asking for Katie Melua for Christmas and I'm still waiting; I've never changed my mind and yet the bearded one hasn't delivered. I'm beginning to think Santa doesn't exist :-(

    Jox, I'm beginning to think that, in 9 years, you've never behaved enough to get the presents you ask for .................

    Of course Santa exists!!
