It's a tough one, because I hear what you're saying–you really want the joy of seeing your kid's face light up with that one toy every other little guy on the block is going to get.

But I think there has to be a limit, and we'd love to teach our kids that Christmas is all about family and giving, and not so much about who gets the latest toys.

That's my two cents, anyway.
