Baby's First Christmas

One of the truly magical aspects of baby's first Christmas is that he won't know what it's all about, which means you don't have to buy him anything. Baby's ignorance can be your financial bliss so why add another name to your already extensive shopping list if you don't need to? In fact, fiscally responsible parents understand that keeping their children in the dark about Christmas for as long as possible pays enormous economic dividends. Look at this way, sooner or later your little so-and-so is going to discover that Santa Claus doesn't exist, so why bother to tell him about the irresponsible fat fool in the first place? Let's face facts, if baby is completely ignorant about Santa Claus he certainly won't be expecting any expensive toys to arrive on Christmas morning. A penny saved is a penny earned, if you know what I mean. In fact, smart moms and dads can even earn a little extra Yuletide cash for themselves by hiring their newborn out to local nativity plays for fifty bucks per show. Easy money and wonderful Christmas memories can be enjoyed by following these simple, super-saver festive tips. Feliz navidad, from the bottom of my heart.

"Santa Claus doesn't exist"

Would it have killed you to put a **spoiler alert** before that?

Findng out that Santa Claus doesn't exist is exactly as traumatic as finding out that everyone doesn't know your grandmother. In other words, not traumatic at all; children know perfectly well their conception of reality is highly flawed. The wonder is that adults think theirs isn't, and look back with pity on themselves!

Mr. Shy, would it have killed you to put a **spoiler alert** before that?
