Tis’ The Season to Be Giving

The holidays remind me of how fortunate I am. I think of all the years growing up when I made Christmas wish lists. I was always satisfied on Christmas morning. I now think of homeless people and people who cannot afford to provide what their children so badly desire. I think most parents want to see their children’s wishes come true.
