It's The Most Wonderful Time of The Year

And so it begins! Our church has the Christmas tree out with the gift ornaments. You know the ones where it might say 4 yr old female, 10 year old boy and so on? Then I take as many as my husband will let me a few and become enormously giddy at the thought of buying gifts for complete strangers. It is truly my favorite part of the holiday season. I can't wait to go shopping for them! Will I buy online? Will I buy Mom Made? I don't know yet. My kids, like most, have a list a mile long and they want and want and want. At least this way I get to give what I want to give with the hopes that some child won't be let down because a $50 Wii game wasn't in their stocking.

Next, they have the Salvation Army stockings! Oh I love this part too. You take as many stockings as you want and decide if you want to make a girl stocking or a boy stocking and choose the age of the child you want to receive it. I'm so excited! I admit it. I get my thrills off good deeds. Yep!

I know you might be wondering what Bono has to do with all of this, absolutely nothing. I'm just showing some love to my favorite band. I missed the tour but I'm not bitter....

Are you going to be doing some charitable gift giving yourself this year?
