Christmas is the most disappointing holiday of the year. Whenever Christmas time came around, my dad was never home. Before my dad retired from the military, he was always overseas during the Christmas holiday. Besides my dad not being around on Christmas, my younger siblings expected every toy on their Christmas list. Last year, my younger siblings had gotten one or two toys from their list, but they kept bothering for the other toys on their list. Christmas is not the best time of the year to gather the family together. My oldest brother had gotten an IPod, but since he was on bad terms with my parents he did not want it anymore.
