Of course, no one has to buy Dane a gift, blah blah blah, and this doesn't apply but to the family whom I know will be giving Dane presents. I would write about how this isn't a plea for presents and apologize if it seemed tacky, but I think if you're thinking that, then you don't really know us and you wouldn't be one to pay attention to this anyway! So if you're getting for Dane Thomas this year, please be advised that:
- One of all, you are not the only one buying for him. PLEASE keep your receipt. We do not care if you got his gift on clearance or marked down or used. Heck, we'd probably congratulate you on your savvy. We just want to make sure you don't waste your money on duplicate gifts. It's always good to check with the parents (*coughmomcough*) before to stake your claim on the gift anyway.
- Two, Dane will be 18 months old. If you're buying clothes, buy size 2.
- Three, as Dane gets older, he gets ... older...? He is not as easily entertained. Toys need to be age appropriate and at least geared for 18 month olds.
- Four, Dane doesn't watch a lot of t.v., but we only encourage PBS, Noggin, Sprout and the like. Think Sesame Street NOT Spongebob. Classic Disney DVDs will always be welcomed in our home. By the way, if anyone can save me the hassle of having to watch Cars and tell me if an overprotective, "watch-your-mouth", earmuffs on, "that's inappropriate" mom would approve, I'd be forever in your debt.
- And five... well, there is no number 5, but I thought it sounded better than four. There are lots of youngsters related to Dane, and I think these are points to consider while you're buying for any little ones. Like I said, the clock is ticking. Make your list, check it twice and happy shopping! See you Black Friday. 4 am sharp! =)
