Christmas Prep

All four of my kids wanted to buy presents for their siblings and parents this year.  This was a little hard for Sam and Grace; they wanted to buy presents but don't have reliable income.  They both did extra chores around the house and earned a few dollars.  Then Michael and I took turns taking them to the dollar store and thrift stores on a quest for the perfect gifts.

Then there was the wrapping.  There were lots of locked doors, lots of tape, and a whole lot of wrapping paper.  The best part was I didn't have to help wrap any of these gifts.  The big kids helped the little kids and I was off the hook.
