Much like last year I was hoping to thin out the girls’ collection of toys before adding to it during the holidays, but time was not on my side. I looked up and, oh. Christmas is next week. Next week. Or, as Leta puts it, THE FARTHEST AWAY ANYTHING HAS EVER BEEN!
Sorry, Leta. You’re wrong about that one. Mars is farther away. And so is Jupiter. And so is my butt.
I’m lucky to have a small room dedicated to toys, so I can usually keep the mess contained. But I’m anticipating a huge haul for donation come the new year. In the meantime it’s homemade cookies and new pajamas and classics on TV. And yes, presents. Some plastic, some wooden, some mechanical, some made for wearing. I can’t wait to see their expressions on Christmas morning.
When they get coal.
