My Annual Angst

Bought my first Christmas gift this morning.....a pretty fun table game called Connect Four. It seems enjoyable to any age person, although grand-munchkin Max is a bit shaky seeing four matching pieces in a row on the diagonal. Totally inoffensive (on this game at least) he LOVES "blocking Lucy", the big sister. We applaud when he accidentally scores four in a-row, but I'm not sure he sees it.

Back to the angst. I have a real challenge, selecting gifts for others, when my strongest inclination is to donate to some charity, or buy a water buffalo for a family in a third world country. We usually buy things for others that WE like, and have a hard time selecting something we really know THEY would like.

What do I hope for under MY tree? Good question.......
