Christmas coming soon.

I am a mom to a gorgeous 8 year old boy, raising him alone and winging every day with him.
The biggest thing on my mind right now is giving him the best Christmas yet.

We have fun together in every normal crazy moment life throws at us.
The Christmas list I have for him is a Xbox brand new so we can play together.
He is at that age now, where our life is filled with adventure.

This is pretty much the list I want to achieve vs. his actual list.

MY LIST FOR HIM:
Xbox
Surfing lessons each day all holiday.
Books to read. (He reads really well and loves it).
Camping trip on a beach destination close by.
Swimming trousers that suite his look.
Christmas lunch.
Bigger Christmas tree.
Loads of little secret gifts filled with small things.
Matching sneakers for us, the unisex brands.
The biggest pool toys around and loads of sweets.

His list will be the same, but the best part of our relationship is we don't need any of it as long as we can keep winging every day together. He would just add that he wants to spend it with the springboks haha, rugby crazy child with the dream to join the team when he is older.

My list where do I start.
I can write a book on my favorite things.

My list I would rather not call a Christmas list, but more a list of what I love and let's see what I do achieve before Christmas.

BIKINIS and more and more of them.
There is nothing better than smelling nice so Perfume is always on my list.
Coffee and all sorts of new ones out there.
I love soft silky linen and creating a peaceful home space.
Renovating and creating a fresh atmosphere to our home of two.
A mini projector to watch movies outdoors.
A white cabriolet.
Family memories all captured.
Iphone that can upgrade my previous one.
Woolworths everything, absolutely addicted to their foods.
Gym Memebership for a year settled.
Sneakers enough to wear a different pair each day of the week to gym.
Non- alcholic drinks that I can sip on at the pool.
Beach wear all Summer.
Spa that takes care of my mani and pedi so it is always photo ready.
Books that grow and motivate you.
Sun lotion to keep me wrinkle free.
Gorgeous PJ's with slippers.
Teeth whitening pens.
Hair products to keep my hair safe from all the sea water.

Here is my list and it sounds so superficial but their is a lesson to it. We all have our things we would want, we all could keep writing a never  ending list..
Dare to Dream and see it as goals, but don't let it control you on how you feel about who you are.

My list is far fetched for the moment where I am in right now, but I can smile and know I will also survive and be grateful with a happy home small family and getting the chance to Wing it .

We all have our lists and it is so good to dream.  
Focus on what is achievable, what you can do and most of all focus on being a smile in someone else's Christmas.
