Countdown

Christmas doesn't start in our house until after 1st December, which is Husband's birthday. After that we get out the Christmas mugs and we start playing Christmas music. Okay, Husband doesn't and Younger Son doesn't; I do.

At the weekend I bought Younger Son an advent calendar.
'Didn't you get one?' he asked.
'No.'

I had to go to Sainsburys today. I bought myself a Cadburys chocolate advent calendar. Roll on 1st December!

I remember the first year I got each of the girls a chocolate-filled advent calendar. Jaclyn was 4 and the first night, she got out of bed and ate all the chocolates at once! I was upset, but she didn't get to have a chocolate every morning when her sister had hers. She never forgot that! lol

Hmmm...you've got me thinking maybe I should treat myself to an advent calendar. It will be tempting to do what J did, but I will try to resist the temptation.
