What if, you know, the paper is ripped just little. Is it okay to continue to rip it a little more? Nah, I guess not. That would just not be in the spirit of the game. But you all have no idea how much it is going to really eat at me until I can see my boys open them.
I've lived away from home for a long time. When my family would send me my gifts, I'd open one a day until they were gone. I could never wait until the actual holiday.
