2020 has been one hell of a year and Xmas somehow made me realize that life is precious and should be cherished. I didn't even get a Xmas gift this year but I had the best gift already which was good health.

Although a few Toy gifts would have added some flavor to the whole celebration mood, I can't complain about not getting one. I have been a lover of Toys since my in fact years.

I might not fully know what toys were meant to be or look like while still a baby but I know I love playing with objects around the house. Christmas was always the time where I had more fun with toys as I get to receive them as Xmas gifts.

Aside from money gifts, toys are the only thing that could make me jump for joy. My parents and extended families knew of my love for toys and they do their best to provide me with one as a Xmas gift.

My favorite Christmas toy gotten was an electronic plane. I got the Toy at age seven. Although it didn't last as much as I would have loved, it stood out amongst the rest of the Christmas toy gifts I have ever been given. It was a little big and uses a battery but it does not fly as one would have thought. I didn't mind as of that age, I was just obsessed with how a plane with two hands moves around like a car.

I have gotten so many toys as Christmas gifts over the years but the one I felt emotionally attached to was the one gotten from my aunt. The toys were a pack of soldiers In different build and positions. What makes me cherish the toy most was because I lost her not long after the gifting of the toys On Christmas day.

They were some toys I have wished for as Christmas gift but they haver came. Toys like talking robots and a flying helicopter but they never came. But it has been over 13 years since I last got a toy as a Christmas gift but I have managed to give a few out. I gave my niece a teddy bear as a Xmas gift last year and also my nephew a water toy gun this year as a Christmas gift.

It's hasn't been an easy year and would have loved to do more but fate decided this is all I could do.

Christmas has been messed up for everyone last year, hopefully this year it will get back on track and we'll see more normality
