[QUOTE="zand, post: 710650, member: 85197"] Same as Andy12345 - boxes of chocolates and bottles of drink. However this thread reminds me of something that happened when my son was 3. He helped me wrap up the presents and wanted to help me wrap up his own presents too. He was always, um let's say 'strong willed'. So there I was, 5 months pregnant and a screaming kid throwing a tantrum .grrrrrrrrr. So I said "OK, I'll just go get something" I brought in a shoe box with something in it and placed the paper on it and asked him to hold it still until I came back again. I came back in and he was 'still' holding the paper, but crying. (lol, I'm horrible!) I said "What's wrong?" He said "I don't want a bottle of orange juice for Christmas" (lol, ungrateful child!) So, yes of course I hugged him and told him I knew that he would look, every little boy would and he wasn't really getting a bottle of squash for Christmas, but whatever he was getting..........it would still be a [B]surprise[/B]! He's 28 and still hates me for that moment. :) [/QUOTE]
