The Gimmies


Miles used to have this great book by Stan and Jan Berenstain - The Berenstain Bears Get the Gimmies! I think we have read this book 100,000 times to Miles and somehow we always have a case of the Gimmies. Case in point - tonight we are going to an Oiler's game at the BOk Center and tomorrow he is going to the Globetrotters there again so I told him - we aren't buying a bunch of junk tonight but I am sure you can get something tomorrow - that didn't register with him. Our child has everything - everything he could ever want and need and we really try to instill this in him. We buy for others at the holiday; donate toys constantly but still can't lick the need to have 'things'. It's a constant battle...the gimmies!
