For the past few years Barry has wanted to put together shoebox gifts for the Franklin "shoebox" project for our Christmas service. However, I've never been on the ball, and we'd miss the deadline so we'd have to do something else (secret santa someone or make freezer meals for missionaries). However, with this pregnacy, I've tried hard to get most Christmas preperations finished before the birth of our expected one. (Yeh, I've got 95% of presents bought and it's the first of December) Soooo, we we're able to meet the late November deadline. We headed off to Dollar Tree, picked out two plastic shoe box and filled it with little toys, candies and hygiene items for a little girl 5-9 years old and a boy 11-15 years old. The kids were thoughtful as to what they wanted to put into the box. What a great way to start the giving season of love.
