Two Lists...

Tonight my in-laws are stopping by for a quick visit. They will undoubtedly be asking my children to come up with lists of things they might like for Christmas. Every year they go absolutely crazy buying things for my children. It is to the point of being ridiculous. I really wish I could make suggestions of practical things that they need like rechargeable batteries aa for all the toys they get or some new socks. I don't really feel this is my place since it isn't my money they are spending. I have decided this year to buy my children only one toy and the rest of things we give them will be practical. This should help with keeping things a bit more reasonable when Christmas does occur.
