Appreciation

As I wrapped Christmas gifts for the kids last night, there was one things that really set in. Out children ages almost 7 and twins who are 5 1/2 have everything they really want/need. I feel so fortunate that we can provide the things that they want. In 2014 I am hoping that we can have more quality family time, you know playing at the house, going to the park, working on school work. The kids relish the time that we spend with them more than any tangible gift that can be bought and wrapped. We have choosen to give to the Second Harvest Food bank and local Sacred Heart charities which provide children with toys and clothese during the holidays season. I get such a sense of value and personal reward in knowing that we are able to help those who are less fortunate than us during a time of year which can be so hard.
