Love presents
We were both sad about Savannah's feeling left out when she goes back to preschool in January. We got her some gifts. We told her they were given because we love her and that God gives us everything we need, and He gives us fun things too.
We did not bring up Santa. We decided if she insisted that Santa left them, we would drop the subject. But she never asked about Santa. A lot of children associate getting presents this time of year with being good. So if I didn't get any presents, was I not good. It makes me feel sorry for poor children. Not just because they didn't get new stuff but because they might blame themselves.
We got her a new Polly Pocket game, the party bus, (She loves it. That's what she's chosen for her playtime tonight.) as well as a lavendar sweater with candy and snowflakes on it, (It the big multi-colored lollipop that made me want it for her because I have fond memories of those enormous lollipops.) a Dominoes game that she played pretty well at Papa Danny's and Granny Linda's two days ago, and Brad got her a Leap Pad with two extra books.
She helped Seth open his, a Mega Blocks set with little cars and new clothes.
We are about to step out for a family drive and a couple of stops.
