Lynette and Stefanie open up the show wishing Producer Gary a happy 30th birthday and give him a cupcake and a card to celebrate the occasion. The discussion of birthdays leads into an exploration of the best and worst gifts everyone has ever received. Lynette then reveals an idea she had about how to help Sonny and Natalia be sure to be both charitable and grateful this holiday season. They also get into their plans for New Years and the complications that having kids can cause for occasions like that. Toward the end of the show Stefanie updates Lynette and the listeners on a major decision she's made for one of her children's future.
