The Adult Wish List

Ahhh... the holiday wish lists.

As children, we would add every shiny toy, bike and video game that we would see in those pretty glossy ads to our wish lists. We wait agerly until the morning so we could tear through the wrapping and unveil its secret contents.

However, as adults, our wish lists aren’t as simple, are they? I mean, can we really ask “I would like my next months car payment paid” or “I’d like a membership to Sam's club.” But, if kids can add a new, shiny red bike, why can’t we add “a new red sports car” to our lists or “for our kids to eat all their dinner.” I mean, it is a wish list after all. So, go ahead and add what you REALLY wish for on that list. Need some ideas… we've got you covered!
