Especially for you
I wanna let you know what I was going through
All the time we were apart
I thought of you
You were in my heart
My love never changed
I still feel the same

Especially for you
I wanna tell you I was feeling that way too
And if dreams were wings, you know
I would have flown to you
To be where you are
No matter how far
And now that I'm next to you

No more dreaming about tomorrow
Forget the loneliness and the sorrow
I've got to say
It's all because of you

And now we're back together, together
I wanna show you my heart is oh so true
And all the love I have is
Especially for you

Especially for you
I wanna tell you, you mean all the world to me
How I'm certain that our love was meant to be
You changed my life
You showed me the way
And now that I'm next to you

I've waited long enough to find you
I wanna put all the hurt behind you
And I wanna bring out all the love inside you, oh

And now we're back together, together
I wanna show you my heart is oh so true
And all the love I have is
Especially for you

You were in my heart
My love never changed
No more dreaming about tomorrow
Forget the loneliness and the sorrow
I've got to say
It's all because of you

And now we're back together, together
I wanna show you my heart is oh so true
And all the love I have is
Especially for you

haha! At least a big toy horse like that will give her lots of opportunities for imaginative/creative play
Must go and check out nickelodeon - is it Kipper as in the Mick Inkpen books?

Ahh Nomore, dd has one of those ponies (in pink obviously) already. Its called 'Cinderella Princess Pony' and we have to refer to it as such or face her wrath. Its sounding like she's really spoiled, she's not, its just that fluffy and pink are her thing.

We also try to get educational, we have speaking clocks, finger puppet spelling trains and giant maths calculators, but as they get older and see the adverts it becomes more difficult to merge what they really want with what you consider educational. And, no matter how much it cost, we have learnt that if they don't think it is fun, educational or not it will sit sad and unused in a cupboard.

www.beyondtherainbow.co.uk/ShowDetails.asp?id=826 Had to get this one for ds...

mistlethrush · 27/11/2007 13:21

Ds is allowed to watch a limited amount of TV - quite often when he gets home from nursery and we want to get a bit of food into him but calm him down a bit before his bath. We have been watching CeeBeebies, but recently discovered Kipper on Nickleodeon Junior (which we appear to get at the moment). This has some good programmes, but also has adverts . have decided to bite the bullet and tell ds that these adverts designed to make people buy things. We saw one of the 'lifelike' dolls that you can 'do' things with and I went eughhhh - he has quickly caught on, does it for this ad and all the others offering equally plastic toys! (he does have plenty of toys I hasten to add, but we do try to get him ones where he can use some imagination or build things etc)

oh, I x-posts there too. I think the dog is just perfect for the sort of girl who likes pink and fluffy It's certainly both of those!

Does your nan have any hobbies or interests? Is she still active or not? I'm struggling to find stuff for DH's nan - she's in a nursing home with litle room for nick-nacks, doesn't really eat much and is allergic to most smellies. Also not very with it some of the time (more of the time nowadays )

Apologies for previous slightly insane message. Panic internet buying obviously taking its toll. Am going to lie down. Sorry.

PiggyPenguin · 27/11/2007 12:04

Have just bought the most hideous bright pink (with brighter pink highlights)fluffy dog from toys r us for dd. Is enormous and will probably cover most of her bedroom floor and i WILL spend the whole of christmas thinking 'why, why did I do that?', but knew she would love it and couldn't stop myself.

Beware all of you, good taste will end with children. i swore I would never dress my dd in pink, and what happened? She dresses only in pink, has a pink room with pink accessories and the largest collection of pink fluffy toys known to man. And I have just knowly added to it the largest pinkest fluffiest dog in existence. Why?

oh bugger mis-read nan as man!! Sorry to call your nan 'he'

Unfortunately Nan already has wheat bag, damn! Also won't be seeing her too close to christmas as lives far away so home bakes not suitable. Even mil stumped. Bugger.

PiggyPenguin · 27/11/2007 10:13

oh god, oh god, Have just vistied toys r us to find most of the presents on ds wish list 'out of stock'. Slight panic mode setting in as bad mother christmas morning looms.

OOh, lavender bag sounds interesting though. Will have to ring mil to check if she thinks is suitable. Thanks and yes, would love liquid refreshment and a natter break later!

mistlethrush · 27/11/2007 10:10

I have sorted gran-in-law with some local honey and local chutney - going to wrap it up to look nice.

Otherwise would be going down the homemade shortbread route. Mind you, might do this with ds - he'd enjoy helping to cook it and she'd like the fingerprints in the top!

Anyone looking for some unusual presents, might be able to help with Pampered Chef - try my website on wwwdotpamperedchefdotbiz forwardslashsarahrushton

May be able to do you special deal - let me know what you want and we'll discuss - orders over £30 free delivery to you certainly! Alternatively, if you need something sent to someone you can get direct delivery to them and can therefore bypass the Post Office nightmare!
