My Christmas Gift to Me This Year…
2020 being what it has been, I decided to give myself a gift this year. It did not come from Amazon and I knew that it could not be returned. But it was something I knew would bring me a lot of joy and one that I could share with others.
On my way home from our walk one morning, I got (as Larry would call it) a harebrained idea. Santa was going to come to our home!
A quick search on eBay and Santa was all set.
No one except Larry and my sister-in-law knew we would have a surprise guest.
There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward. Khalil Gibran
The surprised look on the faces of the adults alone was worth it. However, seeing the delight and joy on the faces of the 4 children was priceless.
Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give. Eleanor Roosevelt
Just like they say...when you give...you get back tenfold. I will remember Santa in my home forever.
It is the childlike mind that finds the kingdom. Charles Fillmore
