The gifts.
I was somewhere North of here, but I did not forget to load up for the girls. The big one got a big jug of CK1, that somehow passed through the security check. Maybe because forgetting my ipod in the shirt pocket forced the fine lady to search me bodily, for a while. She just said, stay put. Rather enjoyable, BTW. Nah. Just a nuissance. But I really forgot.
This is the bounty:
A couple of protective follets of the house. Aren't they cute?

Tree decorations and the genial idea: a folding measuring thing. Little one has been measuring everything since then.

Then, yesterday I got few things in Milano, in this Japanese shop.

What, a moleskin notebook for a 4 years old? Yes. I want her to get accustomed to fine things right from the start.

She is learning numbers and letters. Not words yet. A riot.
