I saw some Christmas card somewhere that said something along the lines of "hope you experience over abundance this holiday season" or something like that and I thought about how wrong that card seemed for days. I don't want over abundance and it bums me out to think of how little others have this Christmas. Ugh.

Every pair of shoes you buy, they give a pair away to a person in need in a 3rd world country. They just did a shoe drop in South Africa?? I think.

We are the same way. ...Glad to see this post, Tara. We are the same way. We got the kids each one gift from us and one gift from Santa. We told each other that there really wasn't anything we needed or even wanted. It seems that the adoption process has affected us in similar ways. All the stuff we think we need and want...seems kind of silly when you look at the world that our children are being born into. But, you are right....this is just a personal conviction. We bought the Red wrapping paper and Christmas cards this year too. I absolutely love the cards that I got.<BR/>AmyAmy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14498736201253966177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8126688151560590735.post-87105733482481534762007-12-03T05:48:00.000-08:002007-12-03T05:48:00.000-08:00I love buying Christmas trees from schools and chu...I love buying Christmas trees from schools and churches - they have the best trees! <BR/><BR/>Great idea on the gifts! We're not doing much this year for Christmas either (new baby - mom not working, etc.) but what we are doing for others I'm hoping to incorporate the same idea - buying products that will help others.

When you think about all the different crises in the world it makes our Christmas shopping look really ridiculous.
