The Big One: Mummy, can I have an xbox?
Me: Well, Christmas is coming and you will have to see what Santa brings. *not an xbox*
The Big One: But I need one now.
Me: Christmas is not for another 4 weeks.
The Big One: But it's not a Christmas present. *Big Sigh* It's just an xbox.
Me: It's not just an xbox. They are expensive and they are definitely something that Santa brings. *I definitely should not have said 'definitely'*
The Big One: BUT IT'S NOT A SANTA PRESENT! We have them all the time.
Me: Eh?
The Big One: I just want to make a model turtle with it. Look.
