My thanks to all of you that commented yesterday. I look at this as a sort of diary of my life - so I had to tell that story.
I feel like I have gone from one end of the spectrum to another. In 2019 we had "Winter Wonderland" at church. We welcomed kids from the neighborhood to come in for a hotdog, some coloring time, a movie and a visit with Santa. Then they were escorted into the "Toy Room" and they were each allowed to pick a toy and a book. This will be our first "Winter Wonderland" since Covid. This year I want to make sure that each child takes home a book that is age appropriate but tells the birth of Jesus So many children have no idea that Christmas means so much more than a visit from Santa. So, the collecting starts now.
Such a wonderful story to accompany your photo. I wish we could do that here in SA. Although most are very religious, they do not have the opportunity or means.
Oh nice that you feel comfortable enough to share your story here. That’s part of the magic of 365 I think.
What a wonderful collection you have already started and what a wonderful endeavor I know the children will really enjoy it since you haven’t been able to do it for a couple of years.
