My child is pretty much bouncing off the walls with aniticipation at this point. There was almost a Christmas problem. The LEGO train he has been asking for was sold out when I went to get it! Luckily, they ordered it for me at the store and LEGO totally came through and delivered it on the 20th! What a first world problem - my kid was about to miss getting his preferred toy for Christmas. Really, I think we put way too much time and money into presents. But though I may preach this, I do not practice it. I vow every year that I will institute a rule of one present each (except for Alex, of course) and it never happens and I invariably go overboard with spending.
Cool story to report! I signed up for a contest with Penguin Canada on Facebook. They posted a picture of some of their books with a bunch of cute stiffed penguins. Well, I wanted one of those penguins, kid that I am, so I asked if they were part of the prize. Penguin wrote back (!) and said unfortunately no, they were not, but if I would provide my address, they would send me something. I did and a day later, I got a book in the mail!!! Penguin is awesome! Well, their marketing people are anyway.
And speaking of penguins, absolutely love this movie!
And this one too!
OK, enjoy and all the best!
