Are you hanging up your stocking on the wall?

Well, are you?

Apparently, we are not.

Inevitably December's arrival has heralded the moment to dig out the six - yup, I said six - boxes of Christmas tat from the back of the garage. And today my 2 year old witnessed the rediscovery of many items; both the treasured and the tired!

The red and green baubles had been sifted, those missing their ties cast aside to make way for those managing to remain intact for the last 11 months whilst lying dormant in a cardboard box. How do they get in to such a pickle? I blame the fairy lights.

Eventually, he happened upon several handmade decorations given to us in recent years by a very clever crafting friend. A cupcake. A gkittery Christmas tree. And what he instantly declared, with a somewhat scrunched up nose, to be q "smelly sock".

That boy makes me chuckle.
