2013 Angel Family

My husband and I felt moved to adopt a family this year for Christmas.  I combed through multiple Craigslist posts on the community board before I arrive at the CL post to the left.

Feeling moved and determined to help this family I went to work.  At first I wasn't making much ground.  I took to Facebook and posted on my personal page as well as a local Buy/Sell/Trade group page.  I am still blow away at the amount of donations we received. Even the smallest of us can help.  Here is a photo of my 3yr. old son helping wrap the gift for the mother.  I also included in this post a photo of the collection for our 2013 Angel Family.  So cool how when given the opportunity to serve, my community really delivered. Seeing the good in people has made this a great Christmas.  I wanted to share this with you.  I hope if you are not in the true Christmas spirit yet this post can help.  If not, I bet the video below will do it. :)
