Every time i think about little kids or excitement one memory comes to mind. when i was younger i had always wanted an Xbox gaming console. after sleeping over at a hockey friends house i discovered how badly i really wanted one. Later on in the year Christmas rolled around, and after raving about this Xbox all year long i knew i was going to get one. Christmas morning on that day was the most exciting day i can think of, waiting at the top of the stairs to go down to the tree and unwrap the gift of my dreams. after 30 minuets of ecstatic present opening a realization came to me.... i had one present left and hadn't seen the Xbox yet.
literally shaking with excitement i opened the gift and saw...you'd never guess... but an empty Xbox box..you can only imagine my disappointment when i looked at the insides of the box to see a note, it read "sorry we took your Xbox out and set it up downstairs..love mom and dad" i rushed over to them half laughing and half crying because i couldn't decide whether to be angry or overjoyed. That is the most exciting moment i can remember from my childhood, and it always comes to mind when i am excited or around my cousins.
