Giving a little something...

Love Christmas because I have always loved to give gifts to loved-ones and see them smile, and appreciate the little something I had given them.

I remember when I was in elementary school and walking up to the Kresge Dime Store. Surely, I couldn't have had much money but somehow I was able to carefully select little things that I thought my grandma aka baba & my aunts, & uncles would like.

I even remember making a personalized ashtray for my favorite uncle by gluing a school picture of me onto green felt, that was then glued onto the bottom of the little clear glass ashtray. I wonder if my uncle still remembers that little gift. I guess I will have to call him & ask him since he is still around to ask : )

Merry Christmas to all, young & old : )

You're never too old for Christmas and experiencing it's wonderful joy when you give a little something to your loved-ones & maybe to those that you don't even know who may very well be greatly surprised & grateful as well.
