OP Here's a general tip for parents, not word related, but sanity related.
Your child did not get the thing he/she REALLY wanted, despite your best effort?
Tell him/her that perhaps the Three Kings will bring it ... this gives you time to run out and find the item and if lucky even get it on sale!
Remember the 12 Days of Christmas begin Dec 25 and run through January 6th, the day thought to be the day the Three Kings brought their gifts to the Child.
We always made it a special dinner that evening, the table nicely done up and a cake for dessert with the present from the Three Kings to follow.
Hope this cheers some children and helps some distraught parents!
Wow
P.S. Anyone else have similar traditions? Now that you are all back at your places of work (note I didn't say "back to work" implying actual work being accomplished) time to start posting once again
Happy Christmastide
WOW
