"while you will have lovely gifts to show off to the world, we will be making memories. You may get an iPod or a toaster, but I will get to gloat over winning a board game. You may receive a bottle of perfume, but I will be getting my toenails painted by my baby girl...
And I will be happy to trade the presents under the tree for the "presence "of my children." |
I didn't realize you wrote that! I read it a couple of weeks ago? Thought it was really good! 
My youngest asked that we not buy her a lot of "things" this year. We bought a flock of chickens in her name through heifer international to go to a family in a third world country. I think she's going to love it!
