Yesterday as I was trying to herd three children out of the door without forgetting my keys, book bags, drinks cups and football kit, Z piped up with,
‘Are you sure you didn’t leave the presents‘
I paused, not wanting to misunderstand, was he talking about Christmas or something we got in the post? ‘What do you mean?’ I asked innocently.
‘Well you like peanut butter and you don’t eat the crusts‘
For that to make sense, you need to know that on Christmas Eve we left Santa a peanut butter sandwich and a mince pie. Santa was a bit full from his Christmas Eve curry and could only manage to eat the middle of the sandwiches…hence the crust comment.
I think I have been almost caught out…and Z is only 5.

My eldest daughter is 8 and far too clever for her own good, I just hope we keep the magic for another few years!!
I was busted when GG turned 6 – she crept out of bed to see if the big man had been, at precisely the moment when I was loading the stockings… Cue lots of make believe from me!
Little rascal!! You’ll need to change tactics next Christmas!

Plenty more opportunities to be found out waiting ahead for you!
Gotta love the delayed questioning 🙂 It’s a bit sad when they ‘get’ it… but then again, bit of a relief too!!
