Your all time favorite Christmas Gift

[low-key]

just this little game my parents got me, but me and my best friend Ricky, played with this non stop for weeks. I miss the security and fun of being a kid. I miss Ricky (Drug Over dose) but will always remember the fun we had

When I was in 4th grade, my mom and dad surprised me with a Saddlebred mare, who would become my best friend and shape the person I ultimately became.

Cross fire. I remember that. It was so fun. The best gift I got was a waterbed. I didn't ask for one. My sister did. But my parents got a deal.

The year my parents finally caved and got me a cat!

My mom told me much later that she kept asking us to turn up the music that Christmas Eve because it was hidden in her room and she was afraid we'd hear a meow.

When I was 5 I got Captain Lazer, an action figure with a ray gun and backpack that shot "lasers" from his ray gun, eyes, chest piece, etc.:

Close 2nd: Astronaut GI Joe with space capsule, when I was 8:

I was really into anything having to do with space or the Apollo moon missions, so I had a lot of fun with that.

It was a long time ago, so she has sadly been gone for a while, but she lived to 16! Her name was Friskie.

On December 23, 1986 the social worker from our adoption agency called and said “Merry Christmas. You have a son.” The best gift I ever got.

I think I was around 7 or 8 when I got an electric train set. My parents convinced me that Santa might not be coming through with my request. On Christmas morning I woke up and saw the train under the tree and ran into my parents bedroom screaming "He came and brought me my train!" I've had better Christmases but that's the one I remember.

As a young kid: Lite Brite

Tween: Simon- that was state of the art high tech back then. My sister got Merlin and my brother Handheld Football. My parents ran down the batteries playing with them on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately I lost it to a melting incident.

Teen: Moccasin Boots- never in a million years did I think I would get them they were quite pricey. It was my only gift but I wore those babies long past their prime.

Adult: On a whim I picked up a robotic dinosaur called Blue for my son. It wasn’t on his list and he wasn’t particularly into dinosaurs I just thought he’d like it. The absolute AWE on his face when he opened it! He kept saying, “this isn’t even in stores yet. How did Santa know” as he hugged it. He’s past the Santa stage now and doesn’t really play with toys anymore but he will not donate or get rid of it.

I had that game too, but it may have "officially" belonged to my brother.
