“Just one month left till Christmas. I should hang my sock on my bed – in readiness for the big day.
“Oh NO! It’s not in my drawer. Where did I put it?”
I searched behind the laundry basket, tidying around it to check.
I searched behind the drawers, tidying there too to check.
I even searched and tidied under my bed!
So loudly Martians would hear me I howled, “WHERE’S MY CHRISTMAS STOCKING???!!!”
Mum peeked in and smiled.
Next time I looked back where it should be, I found it. I had tidied my room, Mum had put it back!
