Never thought the day would come 
when my kids don't make their holiday lists 
by circling all of the toys in the "Big Toy Book" from Toys R Us. 
They used to spend hours devouring the pages,
 and dreaming about all of the possibilities. 
Don't get me wrong, I don't miss all of the toys and little pieces
 all over the house...
But... I do miss the innocence and excitement of those little hands
 flipping page after page...
