    Heated blanket or mattress pad, replacement toothbrush heads, electric can opener, fire extinguisher, gift cards for clothes or movie tickets, paint for the house (indoor), cat litter box, and someone to pay my tuition and fees :P
    Most of the stuff we asked for were everyday things we just can't afford right now.

    Because I'm the mom, I'm getting what I want for Christmas...

    Before a single gift is opened in my house this year (and every year to come), we, as a family, are going to be doing volunteer work of some kind on Christmas morning. This year we're going to a nursing home to spend some time with the elderly who's family isn't with them for the holiday. My kids are going to read books to them, and we're just going to sit and talk to them and give them some company for the day.

    And every year for Christmas (and Thanksgiving, too) I buy $100 worth of $5 gift cards to McDonalds and I bake 5 pumpkin pies. The gift cards get handed out to the homeless in our area and the pies, and of course whipped cream, go to the fire departments that service our neighborhood - for the men and women that can't be with their families on that holiday, because they're at work protecting other people that day. So that will continue as well.

    That is awesome. I feel like an *kitten* now.

    But seriously, that's really cool of you guys. :)

    Love! And I actually think I will do the same thing for the fire department. They gave my 3 year old and his friends a tour of the fire station and fire trucks for his bday! It was great and they are truley an amazing group of guys. Thanks for the idea!

    I've already got mine and it's the best gift ever! My parents have given me tickets for my husband and I fly home for Christmas to Canada (we live in the UK)! No better gift than getting to eat grandma's christmas pudding with my huge fantastic family. Oh yeah!

    For the last 5 years all I've wanted for Christmas was to volunteer. I never want presents...if you're going to spend money on me, send it the American Cancer Society in my name.

    But this idea came to me because I'm tired of how greedy my kids have gotten. I'm divorced from their father, and he likes to be the 'Disneyland Dad', so they're getting used to getting all kinds of stuff over there they know they can't get at my house. Needless to say it's producing some attitudes I don't care for. They need to see what it is to be without before they receive.

    to look in the mirror and see something besides all the aesthetic imperfections...

    to see my dad and step family, or see my natural mom's family, either one...

    snow...

    to not wake up alone on Christmas morning...

    new tires for my truck would be nice, but at the risk of sounding greedy... i'll buy those for myself..
