Secret Santa
 
After reading the thread about the shoe boxes of gifts being sent to children in other countries I felt I had to say something about OUR children.

I received a card from my Secret Pal this week which I truly appreciated. Her prayers mean more to me than any gift that could be bought.

But I am very sadden to read where one of our posters here has children that she was not able to buy Christmas gifts for last year nor this year. If I'm not mistaken she has four children.

I hope this doesn't sound too presumptions, but since it was one of the requirements for particpating in the Secret Pal here on AFF to send a Christmas gift, I am asking my Secret Pal to send my gift to the poster Nahkoe's children.

Here is her post: I spent nothing last year, I'll spend nothing this year. lol

And we do celebrate..it's just stinky being so poor sometimes.


I am not in need of anything, and would rather see these children have a good Christmas.

I don't know who has my name for Secret Pal, but I echo what Esther says. IF you were buying something for me for Christmas, please don't. Please spend the money for the children instead.

I don't know who mine is either and this is the only way I know to get the message to her.

I agree with you - I do not know who my Secret Pal is either, but I would much prefer to have my gift sent to her children.
