This year’s presents were all about Den-O and Dora! I love to watch the joy on their faces when they see those presents by the tree on Christmas morning. This year Arisa is old enough to be well aware that there’s something juicy in that brightly-wrapped box.
Before Christmas day Keiji would often ask for everything to do with Den-o and I’ll tell him, well if you are good then maybe Santa will give it to you. To which he would just reply “Oh, it’s OK, grandma will buy it for me!” I saw a t-shirt somewhere that says “Santa’s Got Nothing on Grandma!” and I couldn’t have said it better myself.
