I had 3 parcels arrived at the end of last week.IO picked them up on Saturday from the post office.Spent alot of Saturday in tears.Couldn't find words yesterday.Here goes.
The first pressie I got was a parcel of books for my children.They are perfect.Do you know my children? they will be thrilled.A and M love those type of books. THANK YOU SO MUCH C From London XXXXXX

The second parcel was stuffed full with lots of girlie things for J. She adores stickers and colouring.There was also a box of fuzzy felts.I haven't seen those for years and they took me back. THANK YOU SO MUCH D from London XXX You asked me to email you to let you know they have arrived. I will as soon as I find your card again.I have lost it amongst the christmas things.As soon as it turns up I will I promise

I couldn't belive I recieved another parcel too. It was full of stocking fillers for my boys A and M. They will love them totally. Dr who key rings will be a huge hit and the spy stuff.Thank you for the voucher for me.I wasn't expecting anything for me.We are not buying each other gifts this year and I have told everyone just to buy for the children.I am so grateful and I promise I will spend it on me.I can't thank you enough.THANK YOU L from Birchin XXXXXXX

I hope I haven't outed anyone.I haven't put my real nickname as I would out myself.I hope you all know from the descriptions who you are. I am so touched by you guys.You all put a lot of thought and time into the gifts. I hope I am in a better position next year and can do the same for someone else.THANK YOU

I haven't got spare money at the moment but I must tell you this. On Sunday I looked after a freinds children so she could do her christmas shopping on her own.She works full time and Is always knackered.I cooked her lunch and pampered her when she came home. She was over the moon. I just thought I would spread some of that christmas cheer that you have given us this year.It really has given me faith in human kindnes once again. Soapbox knows my story and I haven't posted under my name about it. Wished I could get bigger letters THANK YOU THANK YOU

THANK YOU

Ooo good colditz you got the vouchers from us too.
Hope you have a lovely Christmas - I'll be thinking of you

ssdsanta, please don't say you feel ashamed with what you sent us! I really mean it when I say I'm very grateful and very touched with your time, sentiment and the expense cost to you. I really mean that, I know life can be tough and time is short and the fact you made the effort to send us a Christmas box really means the world to me .

Now I'm home to 2 more surprises! I can't believe today, it feels like Christmas is here early!
To puddytats, thanks so much for the nacklace, my mum'll live it, it's just her. That was really kind of you, I know it has been chosen with a lot of thought.

ans also a big big thank you to Sarah, Alan and Olivia in Switzerland for the yummy sweets and the Boots gift card! Thank you so much again!

Really, givers, please believe the difference you have made to this mum and kids, I so appreciate it. Thank you and I sincerely hope you all have a great great Christmas!!

I just got another parcel!!! ! I thought I was all done!!!

Thank you sooo much to the MNer who sent me a fab box of duplo for my ds - it is lovely! He will be so pleased with it!

Can't wait to see his face on Christmas day now!

sweetkitty · 04/12/2006 15:37

I just received another parcel too, it really is far too much. A box full of clothes for the DDs from Tortoise, many many thanks they are lovely especially the party dress which will fit T, I was thinking she will need a party dress for her toddlers parties coming up and they are so expensive for just a few days wear.

Thanks again

SK and the DDs xxx

PinkTinsel · 04/12/2006 15:58

berrycherry, thank you the parcels arrived today and i resisted the urge to open all the pressies. you've been incredibly generous, thank you!

PostOfficeTrauma · 04/12/2006 18:49

I tried and failed again to get to a Post Office today - my next chance will be Friday. So, L in C with children B and A, I haven't forgotton you, and hopefully Friday will be third time lucky!!

Puddytats - thank you for the lovely necklace!

I have started my own thread about your lovely present!

reindeerkid · 04/12/2006 20:17

KBinSurrey yes dd is very young but is very happy and does appreciate the wonderful gifts she has received for the baby.I am keeping my fingers crossed all turns out well next scan in january to find out i she is having a boy or a girl

santascomingforyou · 04/12/2006 20:28

Raindeerkid - I finally managed to send yours off today sorry it's more 'practical stuff' for DD as opposed to toys/clothing etc will watch to see if she announces the flavour thou, and have a look thru again there's a little something for everyone, but please excuse the box (you'll understand once you see it.) hopefully it will be with you between now and thursday.

puddytats · 04/12/2006 20:36

Should tell you off for opening before christmas! But i won't!!

FLAMEinEckItsYuleAgain · 04/12/2006 20:48

Still stunned at how this has escalated. ANOTHER parcel today.

I am C in Bournemouth with Bronwyn and Emrys - recieved (amongst other things) a unicorn bag, some clothing, books, and something in a silver bag for me

Please - if you sent to C in Bournemouth with Bronwyn and Emrys, I would love you to email me flamesparrow at gmail dot com. You don't have to tell me your MN name, I would just love to email you a proper thankyou and photos of my children opening your presents.

IamBlossom · 04/12/2006 22:09

FattieMumma, I sent to an M in Crawley, was it a delivery from ToysRUs? If so, am DEAD chuffed you like the presents and hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas.

Love IamBlossom.

MammyMto3kids · 04/12/2006 22:51

KBinsurrey, did you send that parcel that I received today? If not, there's another KB in Surrey! My earlier post gave a few hints, can't give too many as everything was wrapped except some swiss choccies and an Argos voucher.....

RickmanAroundTheXmasTree · 04/12/2006 22:59

I had another parcel arrive this evening and was totally thrown once again. If you are LM and you sent to A with A and N, thank you so much, it was really, really lovely to receive your gift. If you don't mind revealing yourself, would you email me at harman1969 at hotmail dot com. Thanks again.

MammyMto3kids · 04/12/2006 23:11

Well then, Thankyou very much, I'm sure that they'll love their gifts, and I'm really grateful for the voucher and choccies! Just not Christmas without choccies!

SantasFattymumma · 04/12/2006 23:20

Blossom - Its not arrived yet but the fact that you have gone to such trouble is already filling me with such gratitude.

Your a fantastic person you really are.

oneofkgfromgssantas · 05/12/2006 00:25

It was a pleasure. Just glad the parcel arrived safely. Hope you have a great Christmasxx L

WeWishUAMerryXmasNANappyNewYr · 05/12/2006 01:42

i am in shock got another 2 parcels today. thankyou for the one from di who has a ds B of just over 18 months. thankyou so much. my dad had to come and wake me up cos he couldnt lift it himself! the letter you included touched me beyond words and i am dying to know what are in the presents. am going to put the teddys sticking out of his stocking. i hope you don't mind but i have kept a few of the 6-9 months clothes out to wear now - i really cant keep squeezing him in 3-6 any longer. there was so many lovely toys and clothes in here i couldn't believe it! if you read this please email me as i would like to send you photos of ds at xmas with his gifts from you. would love to send you a card but understand about dp. i have sort of kept this MN thing secret from my family cos i know they wouldn't get it either.

also thankyou to the lovely MNer who sent mummy HAE and 6 mo ds T-J E in kingswinford. can't wait to open them. they were in an amazon box and a yellow carrier bag. again would love you to email me.
