I have a daughter and one thing that is such a benefit of having children is that you can relive the good points of your childhood through them. For example, I remember loving Christmas and believing in Santa when I was a little kid. It was so much fun waking up on Christmas morning and seeing what I got. Good times. Then when I grew up I learend about the truth behind Santa and how things work in the real world. Chtistmas was still fun, but not Magical fun, you know?

Well now I'm here watching my daughter talk about Santa and learning how he brings presents and I can see that same fun magic that I had as a kid. It is nostalgic in a good, fun way. I can feel some of the magic again and it brings back the memories I never want to forget.

Though one thing I do want to forget is the fact I have a bad cold right now and a wife nagging me to build this toybox thing for my daughter before tomorrow. My kingdom for a dose of NyQuil...

Lesson to you kids out there-- don't grow up too fast!
