A great idea!

There is a story in the newspaper today that I would like to share with you, but I don't know how to post the link to it. If you want to read it, go to www.charlotte.com. Click on the link underneath the photo. It says, "Gift giving: No presents please."

I think this is a great idea! My family has decided to do this this year, and I'm so excited. We are going to exchange Christmas cards, explaining to each other who benefitted from our generosity, whether it was a gift of time or money.

I'm not trying to tell others what to do at Christmas, but if you are as tired of the commercialization of the holiday as I am, you may want to give this a try. I think it is going to bless our family---and others---and help us to rediscover the real meaning of Christmas.
