So my dream came true last night...

Last night I went to Wal-Mart and bought my son's bike for Christmas. I had already bought my daughter's, it's been sitting in the shed for a couple weeks. When I had to pull out the Christmas tree and some old toys, I almost got caught. I had to make up a story about how Santa's Warehouse burned down and he had to ask parents across the world to store stuff for him. I told my daughter I was holding toys for kids in Argentina, hahahahaha. Let's just say it's been a fun week. When I put the bike in the cart I felt so proud, I had promised myself when I got divorced that Christmas would be as special for the kids. I promised that I'd get them something that would allow us to spend more time together as a family. Now I've done that and I feel like I've accomplished something much bigger than myself....

Some poor Argentinian kid is going to be disappointed when he doesn't get that bike.
