Oh man, that is priceless. Thanks for posting.

I don't know about the e-mails. I began with recognizing your intentions. I told my story and opinion because most people don't think about that any more than I did until it was made very real to me that it is a socioeconomic issue that is largely ignored. I tried to not make it personal by asking you questions, but since the tantrum occurred I will. Do you know the financial status of the child's parents? You didn't know her age so you couldn't have known them that well, right? So you have no idea whether she will get what she wants or not for Christmas and if she doesn't get what she wants she might think it was because she was bad. That's wrong no matter what Christmas spin you want to put on it. We are in an economic downturn. Period. The company I represent just had a lay off. Last week! Granted it was only 12 people, but 12 people that have families. I am guessing there are a lot of children out there right now that aren't going to get much at all for Christmas and we have a lot of movies, songs, store santas, and unwitting older people that make it a whole hell of a lot harder on the parents that are already stressing on not being able to give their children what they feel their children deserve because movies, songs, store santas, and unwitting older people are making children believe that if they are good they will get gifts like every other boy and girl. No matter how good a child is, their Christmas gifts are based on their parents and other family members incomes. Just because a person has good intentions doesn't mean the person did the right thing. Maybe not enough of you on here have been poverty stricken to understand what Christmas can actually mean to poor kids when the better off kids come running into school after Christmas break bragging about all the great presents they got. Just today I heard on the radio that the number of families that have signed up for assistance for their childrens' Christmas has doubled compared to last year while the number of charitable gifts has dropped. Do the math. A lot of parents out there on Black Friday were looking for deals because without those deals there will be no Christmas for their kids. Are you sure you weren't talking to one?

Beautiful baby josh!Looks very happy and at peace,love and prayers- Jim -------B.T.W.your yard does look awesome,my neighbors chickens have been pecking at my palms!Can you say chicken mcnuggets?and no your not supposed to have chickens in town!pass the bar-b-que sauce!

I like Athan Paul Pavlos. It is unique, to me anyway. Aidan is very popular, Sex and the City made that happen. It is a really pretty name but very trendy because of that show. Athan might confuse some folks and make them hear Nathan, but that shouldn't be too bad. Aris could be confused for Paris, too. Have fun choosing, we finally decided about 3 weeks before my lady was born! We had to have two, we didn't know the sex, Sylvia and James :) Christy (mama of Sylvia :)
