I hope you have had a Merry Christmas. For me, this year will be tough to beat. While I received some amazing gifts from my wife and kids, the most amazing gift I received is time with my family. My youngest son surprised me by flying in from Ohio. Then I got to spend the morning skiing with ALL of my grand kids. I got to do my favorite activity with my favorite people. We had a great time.
When my kids were young, I used to get them what I call Christmas toys. They are toys that the kids love to play for only until about New Year's and then they are quickly forgotten. As I get older, I actually miss those toys and continually ask my wife for one each year. Today she surprised me a couple of inexpensive remote-control cars. Both of my grandsons love cars and will enjoy playing with them over this Holiday season. They are really fast and tough to control so I imagine it won't take long before someone launches them off the stairs and we will see how indestructible they are. I'm not banking on both of them surviving too long.
Hopefully you have gotten to spend today with people you love and received at least one gift you hoped for. For me, this year has been all about the people and it has been a great day.
