OK, I have a new quandry in the Christmas department. What do you do when they don't MAKE what your child really really wants?
We have told my kids this year would be a lesser Christmas than past. (last two years daddy was either deployed, or just got back, so mommy compensated!)
So the kids are taking it well. They are doing a great job of letting us know what they REALLY want vs what looks cool. The only problem is DS. He is almost 5, and has been super-into toy story since age 2. He plays with his toy story toys ALL THE TIME and has decided what he wants the absolute most is a Prospector Pete.
I've looked when we were at WDW, and I've looked on ebay, and they always sell upwards of $40. Which is not good, since $60 per child is our budget.
Grrr....so, should I break his heart in advance, or say it fell out of Santa's sled? (and hope for some stinky pete toys with the release of Toy Story 3)
