Christmas morning my sister rang and the girls couldn’t wait to get on the phone to tell her about their favourite gift so far. They talked for quite some time and I could see that the girls were getting more and more animated as the conversation went on. Then Lani, ever the practical child called Glenn over and requested that he take a photo with his mobile to sent to Aunty Jill. The above photo is the pose they struck for the photo also Aunty Jills voice had to be included to so that she would know that the photo was for her and so that she would "Get It"
Then Lilly handed me the phone.
"Hello" I say into the receiver " What’s going on?"
"What on earth is SUCKING SAND???"
"What??"
"What you got them for Christmas"
"Sucking Sand, you such it and it gives you a beard"
"Ohhh" I say as understanding dawns " A sucking Santa"
"Yesssss!!!" Screams Alanah her voice frilled with frustration and her hands palms up at her sides thanking the heavens above that the adults in her life have finally gotten a clue. "You suck Santa and he gives you a beard."
"Righhhht". Said Jill to scared to admit the last comment confused her more than anything else so far.
Oh. my. stars. I’m dying of laughter over here.
We were in histeric’s on the phone that morning and the photo didn’t ever reach us so the first thing I asked after getting over the shock of parading round like a giant red hairy man was “show me the sucking Santa????” LOL LOL histerically…….
