I must be mean.... I've always told DSD that, no... she can't have every teddy in her bed, lying on her pillow.... she can have one.... yes... one....

most recently it has been.... sorry my dear, you are getting too big to leave your teddys and spare pillow and clothes and skipping rope and numerous other items on the end of the bed.... they need to go away or on the floor.....

yep.... I am again, officially, the evil stepmother....!!
