Only a few more days!

"Mal, come here baby!" Zoe called.

Mallory walked upstairs and saw her mother sitting in front of a telescope box.

"Mommy what's that?" Mallory asked.

"This is the present from me for Daddy. And this is from you for Daddy." Zoe said. She grabbed a small box and Mallory frowned.

"What is it Mama?" Mallory asked.

"It's a Google home! It'll go somewhere in our house!" Zoe said. Mallory nodded and sat beside her mother.

"What are you doing Mama?" Mallory asked.

"Wrapping presents. What colour wrapping paper do we want for Daddy's telescope?" Zoe asked.

"What colours are there?" Mallory asked looking at her mother.

"Well there's blue with white snowflakes, or red polka dots?" Zoe asked.

"One for each!" Mallory said excitedly. Zoe smiled and began wrapping presents. She tied a blue ribbon around one and a red ribbon around another.

"Do you think Daddy will like his presents?" Mallory asked.

"I hope so Mal."
