		<description>Hopefully next year our son will understand a little bit too. This year he just waited around for his presents to be opened and then played with them. I guess it is progress.

		<description>Now that my kids are grown I am missing those early magical Christmases when they still believed in Santa.  Now I&#039;ll have to wait for some grandkids to spoil.  I&#039;m ok with waiting.

		<description>Cute story BloggerDad.  Merry Christmas.  Sounds like E and Lukas are at a similar age and stage.  We asked Lukas what he wanted from Santa and he kept repeating &#039;A red toothbrush&#039;.  It was in his stocking this morning.  He is just starting to realize the magic of Christmas and it is magical for us to take part in.

		<description>It&#039;s amazing how raising children brings back some of the &quot;magic&quot; that we have lost in the celebration of big holidays.  We get to revisit those moments in a different way, as we watch our children experience the same things that we did as kis ourselves.  Kudos to you for not only recognizing the awe of this day and the fun of the presents, but for instilling in your boy the religious significance of the occasion.  The picture of him praying says it all:  whether he is praying for a new toy or praying in understanding the significance of the day, the fact that he is doing it at all shows that you are raising a boy who will not take the holiday for granted.
Merry Chritmas, Dave - to you and the entire family.  You have much to be proud of!

		<description>Dave,

I&#039;m with you 100% here. The magic was gone for me until I had kids. My son is only 2 this year, so he doesn&#039;t understand anything, but it&#039;s still cool as ever seeing him tear paper off his gifts, ignore those gifts, and spend hours playing with the boxes the gifts came in.

Merry Christmas,
Shane

		<description>At Christmas we usually have a stuffed turkey, but never a stuffed dog! And we certainly don&#039;t don&#039;t keep it for 45 years like you. I guess you Americans have different customs?</description>

		<description>The moment we let go of our childhood, we stop believing. This is the simple truth. :-)
