View Full Version : The world's best present?
Did this come from Santa to you or your family this year? If so, we wanna know...
Doesn't have to be something really expensive but perhaps something very thoughtful, maybe very unusual or it could be something you've yearned over.
So spill the beans and then we can oooh, ahhhh and remind you how lucky you've been! [xmas1]

My downes Syndrome son (11) understood for the first time in his life that santa was coming and going to leave him presents at the end of his bed. He awoke at half past seven and ran into our bedroom with the biggest smile i have ever seen on his face asking us to "come see" what was in his room. Truely the best Christmas EVER.

Our best Christmas present has been having our daughter her partner and baby Mia here for Christmas,as you might remember Mia was born with a small cleft to the right side of her lip,well she had the operation to close it Decemeber 18,December 23 she had her stiches out and they came straight hereso it has been really magical,Mia is now complete and a beautiful little girl,she was before but now its as though she has been born all over again,baby's and children are wonderful who could ask for any more.
Happy New Year to all,i hope we all have a great year.

Great Sheena, that's wonderful news.
Two wonderful stories, it makes you feel good just to hear them.
We have had a wonderful Christmas too with our two beautiful grandchildren here in Florida with us. Isn't life just terrific.

The most successful gift I gave was a bonsai tree and I could see after that I could have got one for everyone.

I do not think the Christmas we had in 2003 will ever be beaten for us.Our grandson Thomas was born in October at twenty seven weeks and we got him home Christmas Eve 2003. Best gift we have ever gotten. AND truly priceless.
I just asked my husband what his best Christmas present was. His response 'waking up'!!!!!!![msnembarrased]

Wonderful stories!! kids are priceless!! had my two Granchildren Christmas day fantastic time, they do keep you amused
10 years ago on the 22nd December I had my daughter 5 weeks early and we brought her home on Christmas morning she was a joy then and still is[xmas1] This Christmas my sister was on a visit home from Australia and she went back yesterday so it was lovely that we got to spend Christmas Day with her which made the day extra special as we don't get to see her very often.
