Dear Lois,
Everyone is feeling the “pinch” this year, and it seems that Christmas has turned into a plastic spendfest for some, but as you already know, the best gift is hiding in plain sight.
You possess the greatest gift of all. LOVE.
Your arms wrapped tightly around her will mean more than any toy could.
Your grandchild looks up to you whether you see it or not.
Children just seem to want their parent’s/grandparent’s undivided attention.

All I can personally share with you today is what you already have, LOVE.

I pray that God will continue to Bless You and Yours

This week I have granted 6 wishes on wishood.com all were needy I have not shopped for my kids they are grown and doing their own thing I would like to be able to afford a big monster truck remote called grave digger for my grand daughter but I am sure she will get some of the other less expensive things I helped one family of three boy’s, one with 2 girls another with 2 teen girls which there are no other places to go for teen’s, if you go to wishood.com and look up lois you will see the families I helped under the heading wishes granted, pleas do go there you may find someone you can help out to.
Lois
