right around Christmas, we came home to find a mysterious box on our front porch...inside, was a bunch of goodies for the kiddos...& a note...
it simply said...To the Skates children:
I am a blog reader & I know this will keep you all busy while your mom makes those cakes. Also, ask mom to post your finished gingerbread house. I will be looking to see how wonderful it comes out! Have a Merry Christmas! Remember, Jesus is the reason for the season!
God Bless – your blog reader from VA
we're still totally puzzled as to who could be the generous blog reader...but we THANK YOU! the kiddos LOVED their cool hats & gloves! (which by the way, shows me this person is a blog reader - the girls stuff was Zhu Zhu pet gear & their gloves are fingerless!) & putting the gingerbread house together was a ton of fun! :0)
Gabby had a friend come stay the night during Christmas break...it seemed like the perfect time to let the kiddos go town on the gingerbread house...
the finished product...
thx again - whoever you are! it feels really good to know that there are folks out there thinking of us...& doing nice things for others...your package definitely brought a smile to all our faces!!!
xoxo,
sharon
