last christmas we had an almost disaster with dd's present, a camera. in a nutshell, it never arrived, we had to order and pay for another and then spent a month chasing refund for the first. skip to a few months later, and dh starts having a rant at the tea table about how much stress was involved in getting the camera.
he was ranting so much he didn't even notice me kicking him under the table. of course, the dc's faces dropped and dd piped up 'but father christmas got me the camera'
have managed to keep it going with a 'polar express' type pep talk, but as it's getting closer to the day, she's asking more questions than i can field. what to do?, keep it up and see if we can squeeze another year, or confess but ask her to keep it quiet for the sake of ds (he's 7 and still believes, sort of!)
