The toy that Grandma picked up, or baking cookies with her?” ~ Alisha 6:04 “Every month they got something in the mail – and that doesn’t happen very often anymore.” ~ Alisha 9:30 “For many years we have done DIY Christmas gifts for friends and neighbours. Our tradition is to make them together as a family, and then get in the car and drive around with hot chocolate to hand them out the week before Christmas. It makes me feel like Santa Clause.” ~ Amanda 28:02 “The best part of my Christmas was seeing my neighbours enjoying the Christmas gifts that I made for them.” ~ Amanda 31:10 “If you are considering getting your child a musical instrument, a ukulele is the best instrument as it is not very expensive.” ~ Amanda 47:10
