Making a list, checking it twice
Ho ho ho, is that jingle bells I can hear? It better be, because Christmas is just around the corner, and I've been busy coming up with my list of presents for Santa. Hope he's got his extra-big sleigh because he's going to have quite a bit to deliver this year!
It's only fair though because he rewards kids who have been good, and I've been extra good this year. Just look at how good I was letting William share my bedroom during the first Coronavirus lockdown. And how great I was keeping up with all my schoolwork when we had to everything online. And how much awesome progress my teacher said that I've made in Year Three at school.
So basically, I've been great in 2020, so bring on the pressies!
This year there are two lists though, because William's done one too (with some help from Dad). It's his first Christmas list, but he's done a pretty good job. What are we each hoping for this year? Watch and see...
There you have it, two nice and easy lists. No excuse for Santa to make a mistake and forget anything. And then a nice long school holiday afterwards for me to play with everything.
I can't wait to wake up on the 25th and look under the tree. That really will be the beginning of a happy ho-ho-holiday!
Hello again Oli, (and Wills). Grandma has been catching up reading the blogs your Dad has written. It was great to read how well you - Oli that is - have worked so hard at your school work while we were in that annoying lockdown. Your teacher was extra complimentary - that’s a big word isn’t it? But it means, she is very, very pleased how much you have improved and learnt in that last few months. Grandma and Grandad were very proud to hear that.
ReplyDeleteWilliam, too, has obviously been watching and learning from his big brother, as he can now write his name - and it is a long one isnt it William?
I have been reading your lists that you have made for Santa this year. As you have both been mostly very good all year, I am sure that Santa will think so too, and reward you with at least some of the presents on your lists.
Must finish this off now and make Grandad a cup of tea.
Much love to you both - Grandma and Grandad xxxx
