Well, good thing we had a frugal Christmas. Not that we ever went totally overboard; as much as I would love to shower my child with HEAPS OF THINGS it’s not a good idea to give them HEAPS OF THINGS just for the fun of unwrapping enormous plastic objects containing smaller plastic objects. Oh, the smile on their faces is wonderful, but you can get a smile on a kid’s face if you give them ice cream for dessert, too. . .
I just made her some popcorn, and the smile she gave me – thanks Dad! – was equal to the shine she’d display on gift #7 as she plowed through a stack on Christmas morn.
