7 days until Christmas!



Cant believe this is the last weekend before Christmas!  I have finished up most of my shopping, but I cant help to feel like I dont have "the gift" for my kids....every year I try to get alexis that one gift that will just knock her socks off.....well this year, I dont think I am going to do that.....examples of past presents are cellphone, stereo, etc....she has every electronic that she wants (dvd player, tv, stereo, ipod etc...) at age 14,  there just isnt anything that she "has" to have this  year, makes me sad....I was wrapping her things and I just feel a little sad that although she is getting some nice things......nothing special. I remember the year that I got my Cabbage patch doll or the year i got my bike.....I am feeling the same way about Mason, although he is still very young and it doesnt matter to him, I still feel like Santa should bring something extra special....  i will never forget the year Alexis got her tv/vcr combo....she was so excited, i love seeing that look in her eyes. If she was a boy, we would probably be buying a PSP for her this year, but she is just not into that... Her birthday is in January and I already have an idea for that special gift.....
