Another thread I have been following on the MSE forums is the Christmas Elf thread. I think it's a brilliant idea so have gone all out to create Buddy Baublebum for Marcie. He will come to stay with us on the 1st December and leave with Father Christmas on Christmas Eve when he drops of the presents. He comes with his own journal to record his holiday with her and will get up to all sorts of mischief as well as leaving her little surprises. She won't really understand what he's about this year as she is only 15 months old so it's more for mummy and daddy this year! I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is Buddy
And here is the journal I made for him. This is the front cover. It say's "Buddy Baublebum. My Holiday with Marcie. Christmas 2010"
And this is on the reverse side of the front cover. It is a letter from Father Christmas thanking Marcie for looking after Buddy and in the other pocket is his adoption certificate to say we have adopted him!
I will post updates on how Buddy is doing after he arrives on the 1st!!
Thats a great idea,you can tell your daughter all about him when she's older.
ReplyDeleteHe's going to come and visit every year until she no longer believes! He will leave his journal every year so she can read what they did and then he will bring a new one with him the next time he visits!
