Anyway, we did allow them to see if Father Christmas brought them a present, which he did, using the bags he had used last year, as well as bringing a present for the adults in the house. My son had warned me earlier in the week that I might not get a present as I had been too naughty but he did not seem to mind that I had been given one. I do tell children that I did not get presents when I was young as I was too naughty, which to be fair, I was. My brothers can confirm that and have done so on many an occasion!
Since being with my wife, Christmas has been more about giving, but this is even more so now we have the kids. We made them wait till noon to open the presents, and they were very good to wait so long (something I used to hate when I was a child) and loved what they got. And now, knackered, they are in bed allowing the two of us time to snuggle on the sofa, watch Alan Carr and type this entry!
