It’s natural for kids to want to be a little greedy during the holidays, but not Carter — all he wants for Christmas are cough drops.

“What about some toys?” asks his mom in the video, to which Carter replies, “NOOOO!!” He’s so adamant on getting JUST cough drops that he even says he will throw his toys away if he gets both toys and cough drops from Santa.

We thought it just a phase and that he’d be expecting toys come Christmas morning, but boy were we wrong. When he unwraps his present and learns he’s received a giant bag of cough drops (on sticks!), he reveals the biggest smile he’s shown all morning.

“That’s just what I wanted!” says a happy Carter. We don’t quite understand why he wanted cough drops so much, but we’re glad he got the perfect Christmas gift.
