What's a good Christmas Present??

Who knows?  Isn't it all relative.  I mean if you are 1 years old the perfect present may be that great stuffed dog or that toy that lights up constantly (although not a parents favorite).  But when your 40, it maybe 5 minutes to yourself, a moment to use the restroom in peace (especially as a mom), or that hour massage that brings you great joy.

Regardless, I still think it is relative.  Sometimes we don't know what is a good present until it is received.  Some people never experience parenthood, the feeling of watching your child open their gift, or see them ride their first motor powered toy.   It's amazing, at least for me.

That was my present.  Watching my boy just light up like a light about everything.  So much so that he didn't even take a nap today, just so overjoyed with excitement and overstimulation, but it was such a great day!!   I wouldn't trade a moment of it for the world. 

Although, at least from my experience, everyday is like Christmas, as a parent.  Such a wonderful gift!!!
