She believes!!

Oh the innocence of children - my one is 6 and still believes - its lovely - in our old house as part of the burglar alarm there were sensor lights in each room - we told her they were connected to Santa's camera and he could see if she was naughty - worked a treat! though now we are on Mull no such need of burglar alarms - we need to be a bit more inventive! It really is hard work being a Mum - no-one quite prepares you for it - some days you just feel part of the furniture but you just plod on and hope they turn out half decent folk as adults - that's all you can do - have a wonderful Christmas and fingers crossed for snow!

Most of us go through the 'how-the-h**l-do-I-post- photos' bit. I can see your children would be a bit young to help in this department just yet! But give them a few years...

Enjoy your children at that age, everybody. They say that life gets easier for you as they get older, but it doesnt. My boys are 26 and 24 and I still worry about them, for example, what ladies of dubious virtue they are getting mixed up with. Now that's a problem we didnt have when they were 2. I remember the second Christmas well. We were skint so, having bought some toys with batteries, we wrapped the batteries up separately to make thinks look better. "Look Daddy, Santa's brought me a battery", "Look, another battery", "What have you got?" "A battery". Covering an empty box in coloured paper doesn't work. After they've shaken it 20 times and nothing comes out, they see through it.

Its simply delightful there are still children who believe!! You are building traditions for your family! Congratulations. When our youngest was at that age where disillusionment all too often takes place, I threatened his older siblings with everything short of murder if they dared to spoil the magic of Santa.

Aw, the beauty of Christmas through the eyes of a child! What a blessing. We are enjoying that too with our 7 year old. It's doubly nice because it can get kind of blue around here during the Holiday Season thinking of days and folks gone by.
