Being a parent we hear lots of "I want"s for Christmas and very few of them are feasible possibilities. A common and well loved Christmas want is "I want a dog for Christmas."
Every Christmas I hear over and over this particular want.
A want that -sorry kids- will NEVER come true.
But it was particularly bad this year over and over and over and over I heard your cries for a dog for Christmas.
Sometimes you would mention a white dog. Or a little dog. Or a magic dog. Or a dog with a spot on his eye.
But it wasn't till we were watching this adorable commercial just as we had done several times before that it finally became clear that this dog you wanted for Christmas wasn't just any ordinary dog.
After the commercial was through two little ones were left staring at the screen longingly with whispered words to each other of "mom says no".
And that was the end of it.
