So dh is just back in touch with his sons after nine years.
Absence was not due to dh.
Anyway dss who is just 17 wants to come for Christmas Day which is wonderful.
It will be dh's first Christmas day with him since he was 3.
Dh and i have two dds 9 and 6. They have big christmas sacks with their names on, i always go a bit overboard at Christmas so they have lots of presents, we love Christmas.
If dss had always been with us he would have his own sack and would have been spoilt every year.
As he hasn't though i want to buy him a sack (with his name on) and fill it with presents so he feels like he's treated the same as our dds.
Am i being daft, will he be a bit at a sack, i know if it was a normal situation he would be, i just want him to be one of the family and feel included.
Would it be nice or am i being daft?
