Remember the Jesus kid?

My family always opens gifts on Christmas Eve. No exception this year. I am happy to report that the gifts I received were things that I needed, not frivolous stuff.
Everyone always talks about having a less commercialized Christmas, but few actually change gift buying habits. There is nothing that I could give my grandparents or other relatives that would not just be momentarily "cute" or something they could not buy themselves. I gave a donation to the Heifer Project in honor of my family. My friends received books of targeted interest that will hopefully invoke thought. Everyone seemed to be pleased.
