The best. present. ever.

When you are under 3, and you get your first “baby” for Christmas,

it is the best. present. ever.

When you are between 5 and 9, babies are,

well,

for babies,

and when you get an Easy Bake Oven for Christmas,

that is the best. present. ever.

When you are  in the double digits, Easy Bake Ovens are for little kids,

and when you get an iPod, or an iPhone, or an iAnything,

that is the best. present. ever.

When you are in your twenties, that really expensive duvet cover or gift card to Ikea (to help furnish your first apartment) is the best. present. ever.

When you are in your thirties, have 2 young kids, and haven’t showered in 3 or 4 days, that gift certificate for a day at the spa is the best. present. ever.

And when you are in your forties, and you get a cast iron frying pan and a Ninja blender,

well,

THAT is by far the best. present. ever.

Along with a bottle of Lexapro. To help you deal with the fact that you had a presentgasm over a frying pan.

Trying not to think about the fifties, when I do back handsprings over that gardening wheelbarrow.

Merry Christmas Everyone 😉
