"and presents on the tree."
On Tuesday my neighbor came knocking on the door. She said that a friend of hers was giving away a bunch of toys and wanted to know if I wanted to go with her to check it out. I wanted to but I was watching these two little boys {hoping the money I was making might be saved for gifts, if it wasn't needed for bills} She left and came back 2 hours later with bags of toys for each of my 3 kids. She was very thoughtful in her picking of the toys and it was so sweet of her!
I was so excited and relieved to know I didn't have to worry about the kids this Christmas, so I could focus on Jones. I have struggled to think of a gift I can give him made from what we already have.
Then one day when coming home from a very busy day of errands I found a secret santa had left a lovely note and a way for me to give my sweet husband a gift.
The only concern I had left were diapers,
And when I stopped by my cousin's house they told me there youngest was growing out her diapers and sent me home with a full package.
Gifts come in all shapes and sizes, this year ours have come wrapped in the arms of those who love us and follow the example of Christ.
