They have to have the newest brand name, the latest "it" trend or feel that if they have a certain kind of car that it will make them cool or happy.

I am one of the lucky ones. I was raised by a father who loves his family more than anything and always let us know we were the most important things on the planet.

I was so excited for my grandson Zander at his 3rd birthday. He got his first Hot Wheels case from my buddy Bob Purcell. I felt it was kind of a rite of passage to childhood. I remember my Hot Wheels case.

My house was making me tired and defeated. It is hard to get going and feel pumped up for the day when you have piles of stuff all over. You can get to the point where you feel you will never get it all cleaned up.
