This was the first year that Maddie really got the whole Santa thing although I’m still not sure its a good idea that we pretend a fat bloke in a red suit comes into the house and leaves all the presents behind (we haven’t even got a chimney), besides why should he get all the credit! That said threatening to tell Santa (or even pretending that he was watching) when Maddie was naughty proved an effective deterrent for the whole of December.
