The holidays will be here sooner than you think and here in Texas, we are beginning to panic. Of course, Christmas is all about family, the birth of the Messiah, and Joy among men, but if you’re a kid, you just wanna know exactly where your present at. "The thought that counts" is a phrase people can appreciate, but I don’t know a child who believes that.

Among the items our kids in Texas anticipate are the PS5, electronics, and pricey clothing. Given all the changes that have taken place this year, we might end up canceling Christmas. I’ve never wanted to believe in Santa more, as it would make it his duty to ensure our children get their toys instead of ours.

HOPEFULLY, TEXAS WILL BE ABLE TO ENJOY THE HOLIDAY

Now Christmas might not be canceled for every boy and girl in Texas but here’s why I say there’s a possibility.  A severe downturn in our economy has happened and the financial crisis has impacted our chances of even enjoying Christmas. Three months ago gas was almost 4 dollars, Milk was almost 10 and eggs have never been more expensive in its life. A lot of individuals here in Texas have lost their jobs due to the high price changes of mortgages, Rent, and again your everyday essentials. I don’t wanna sound like a Scrooge, but I wanna be realistic. Is it a possibility that Christmas will be canceled in Texas?
