I sent small gifts to my other young grandchildren including a box of 120 crayons for the 3 little ones to share. Gifts of money to the 5 in college. Christmas Eve we had fondue, a Christmas tradition my daughter loves. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you both.Lindienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-72230722171770763862011-12-24T09:49:57.074-05:002011-12-24T09:49:57.074-05:00I agree with you Jack!

And about what a true gift is. It comes from your heart. The old adage, it's better to give than receive is so true. MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and Sherry. Hope you have a wonderful day. I'll be hobbling around here waiting to have an MRI to determine if I need surgery. What a way to start a new year, ey?

It was fun to go outside to play with whatever toys had been made or bought and also to see what the neighbor's kids got!

I can remember getting a record player and some long playing albums one year and a transistor radio another. I liked to listen to music then and still do today. Enjoy those wonderful memories and make some more while you're at it!I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.com
