We are so blessed

A few weeks before Christmas my friend Aunt T called and asked me a really strange question. If money was no object what would we get C for Chritmas this year? Ummmm. That's a hard question to answer on the spur of the moment and when we've already bought him this years presents. So I tried to give her some ideas. She prompted me with some ideas, but then wouldn't tell me why she was asking all this. Fast forward to December 14. My friend Felicia was here having coffee with me when Teena called and asked if she could stop by for a few minutes. When she came in, she had a big bag and a huge box full of presents for C. Well actually there was one present for me and Daddy and a card for us.  I think there were 23 presents in all for him.  A lady at Daddy's old place of work (Uncle Jon still works there) wanted to do something special for C this year.  A little overwhelming.

A list of what he got as much as I can remember:  a large Star Wars Lego set, 2 large Halo sets (similar to Legos), at least 2 small Star Wars Lego sets, marbles, card games, coloring books, warm up pants, snow boots, hat&gloves, a Christmas Lego set, 3 different kinds of candy dispensers (2 look like Darth Vader and 1 looks like a light saber), a football, a basketball, and spy goggles.  How awesome and thoughtful. We had him open 2-3 each night leading up to Christmas.  Another wonderful way to "pass the time" leading up to a hard day.  We are truly blessed.
