I have decided that since the new commercial holiday tradition seems to be advertising and selling Christmas effective November 1, I will take advantage of this fact and start some interesting conversations. In my search for holiday gifts -- yes, I am nearly done with my holiday shopping -- I stumbled upon a great set of holiday icebreakers cards. Interesting stuff. You will all now be my guinea pigs :-)
Icebreaker for the day: If you could give any gift to one person, what would it be and who would you give it to?
That is a tough one - I am waffling between giving my friend Teri the gift of a stress and anxiety-free weekend full of SLEEP, giving my Dad a year of rent for his home and office, or, giving Ken a set of season tickets to the Oakland A's with hotel and travel accommodations for every game. ( I thought about tickets to the Bills, but realized that means lots of snow -- he hates snow)
PS: Just in case you forgot we still have our joint blog where we talk about the ups and downs of married life and how we are growing as a family -- together.

The selfless answer: a clean bill of health for a friend from high school who was diagnosed breast cancer at 30.
The fun answer: Unlimted funds so my husband can have the poker time of his life.
Going with something that can be bought...I would give Casey the ultimate hunting trip with his brother and friends
Now for something thoughtful.. Give enough money to all the single parents to be able to make bills and not stress (and make the parents with drug and drinking problems stop). That way kids could just be kids and not have to handle adult issues.
This is a tough question. I like the answers so far, too! I think I'd give Madison the freedom to be and do whatever she wants whenever she's old enough (and responsible enough). When I pay my student loan bill each month, I wish this for her... We're taking steps to make that happen, but by the time she's an adult, college might cost 4 billion dollars, LOL. It'd be nice if she never had to worry about money.
I think I'd also ask Santa for my Dad to be stress free and life drama free, he really deserves a break.
