What a day!

Grace wouldn't tell us what she wanted for Christmas, so we just went with general things that we knew she'd like. Well, when she visited Santa, she told him she wanted a rocking horse. I didn't think much of it, but ever since then, she has been talking about wanting a rocking horse. I tried mentioning other things she "might" get for Christmas, and we always ended up back at the rocking horse.

So today, I unwrapped one of her gifts and headed to Toys R Us. Ohhhh my. It's right next to the mall and every other shopping-worthy store around, which of course means that EVERYONE in the world was out there today. It took me 30 minutes to go a mile, and there was a cop directing traffic at every red light.

Anyway, I finally made it to Toys R Us, and managed to exchange the other gift for the very last pink rocking horse they had. It's not as tall as I would have liked it to have been, but it will have to do. I was not about to let my little girl wake up and not have the one thing she asked for multiple times. So she will be getting her rocking horse on Christmas morning :)
