We let the kids tell us what they wanted and tried to make sure they got everything they told. As my son opened up his transformers and was so excited I thought briefly back to my childhood and remembered when I opened a giant teenage mutant ninja turtle doll. It was one of the best years ever as I got exactly which one I wanted for Christmas. I vowed I would never throw away their toys like my dad did because I left them on the floor. I also put thir toy box right by the tv to help me because its easier to throw it in the toy box right there then it would be to pick it up and take it to the garbage can.
