One year the best gift I received was nothing. I had two healthy parents still alive and kicking and all the bills paid and we just appreciated having each other. We had all of our needs met and our wants didnt matter. And yet, we were happy. The whole family. It was a miracle. LOL

You people are gonna make me cry with your answers! It's funny - sometimes we don't realize how lucky we are and then when we look back we see that we are truly blessed!

My best Christmas gift actually came 2 days after Christmas. On December 27, 1983 I was adopted. I didn't find out about this until I was seven. Now that I'm older I feel blessed everyday about it, because if I hadn't been adopted I don't know what "mess" I would be in today.

That is trully hard to say, but I would honestly have to say Christmas of 93. That was the first Christmas I got to spend with my daughter. I was in Korea for her first one.

Diva - you are right. There is more joy in giving - especially to people who have nothing. I know my kids and I am sure everyone else's kids, get things all year round. There are some kids who get nothing and then one small toy on Christmas.
