  • Wilson finds it hard to accept that the other kids have more Christmas ornaments than he does.  "But Wilson, that's just because we've been alive for more Christmases than you have."  Right, they're older.  That's how it is with everything.  When you're little, the big kids stink.  We broke out the math and explained that it's not a personal problem, it's just a matter of Time.
