Yesterday morning was emotional, very emotional, we’ve had a very special package set aside for weeks now, a “little” something from Jan the Fan, sent extra early, after Boris made his announcement of a second meltdown and while she could still get out, just in case things went on any longer than expected. We also had the tantalising permission to open said package on the first day of December.
Inside the package, which we have to confess has been “felt” quite robustly over the past weeks, were three small festive bags, one for each of us …….
Darrell and I let Nigel open his first, as we were fearful that he might spontaneously burst with the palpable and tangible excitement if we didn’t.
Inside was a beautiful, handcrafted snowman neckerchief/bandana, perfect for keeping his neck warm on the school run and which he immediately got Darrell to “style” for him.
Darrell and I received the same, a red Santa/Rudolph combo for Darrell and a grey version for me, we were sooooooo thrilled, just what we wanted.
There was also card, our very first Christmas card of the season, after the year we have all had, everything, for just a few minutes at least, felt normal again in a festive type way.
Thank you soooooooo much Jan the Fan, our No. 1 Fan, we promise, that these will not leave our necks (excepting bath/shower and bedtime) for the rest of December, we absolutely love them! THANK YOU!
