Ben’s 3rd Christmas
Ben had a really good 3rd Christmas and Father Christmas brought him lots of presents!
On Christmas Eve Ben put out a carrot for the Reindeer and a drop of milk and a cookie for Santa with a Christmas Card as well, and when he woke up in the morning, they were gone and a Christmas Card from Father Christmas had been left behind for him.
Typically, Ben had been waking up early all week (as we had had a lot of snow) but on Christmas morning, he decided to have a lie in so in the end I had to go in and wake him up at half past 7. When he woke, he was very excited though, as Father Christmas had completely filled his stocking up which had been left at the side of his bed. I helped him bring it in to our room and we opened up our stocking presents. Unfortunately, Ben turned a bit naughty as he wanted to eat all his chocolate from his stocking, so we had to hide it all in the end!
We then went downstairs and Ben was very excited when he saw the gigantic stack of presents underneath and beside the Christmas Tree. I had to hold him back from diving in as he went straight to a big present and was just about to rip it open before we even had chance to get settled!
It took ages to open all the presents and Ben had a wide range including a hoover, a kitchen, a remote controlled car, magna-doodle, a play tent, a laptop, a camera (that actually works and takes pictures and video!), a Thomas and Timmy Time set, lots of clothes and lots of chocolate. He played with everything and loved it all!
He didn’t really eat his Christmas Dinner as he had been scoffing on chocolate and sweets all morning, and he was too excited to sit down and eat for very long!
Anyways, we had a really good day and Ben seemed to love it all…he was very tired when it was bed time, although he still woke up several times during the night!
He had more presents on Boxing Day and over the next few days from various people, which he loved as well!
So a big thank you to everyone who bought Ben a present for Christmas!!
