011209: Please let me in Santa, I'm supposed to be on the 'nice' list!

    Ah, December. This year we're celebrating for Sofie, and she awoke this morning to a little tree in her playroom, a letter from Santa and an advent calendar.

    In the space of a few hours there were some suspiciously open windows on the calendar (thankfully not chocolate), a stern telling off regarding swinging the tree decorations around the room, and a feeling in both our minds of "how are we going to make it to Christmas?".

    Cue a trip to Rochester Castle with friends. Picture slightly enhanced, but she really was hanging off the rings - mummy revenge was sweet.

    Day 1 of my 2009 Advent Calendar.

    (#1 on Explore! Wow!)
