This will be the first Christmas together for my husband and me. He didn't grow up with the 'decked out' holiday like I did but has agreed to making Christmas stockings because it's a favorite tradition of mine. Because it's his first ever Christmas stocking, and our first Christmas I want it to be extra special. So I'm filling his stocking with my "wish list" of everything I want in our marriage and life together.

I'm putting a little note to explain what each item represents: CHOPSTICKS for the meals I enjoy cooking for him;  MINI BABY DOLLS for the children we want to have; a hot wheels CAR (that one's obvious), a tiny model AIR PLANE and GLOBE because we want to see the world together; a roll of WALL PAPER for the home we will have; and a 50th ANNIVERSARY cake decoration for a long, happy marriage.
