“Your gift wrapping and letter was just fantastic and it was so much fun to watch her read your note and see confusion turn to more and more excitement. I don’t think I’ve ever had so much fun watching her open any gift.”
Alternatively, before I begin the gift roundup (small, women-owned businesses, including yours truly, wink), I also want to share, my in-laws and I have been purchasing gifts for foster kiddos for a few years now and if you’d like to donate, hop on my newsletter and I share the link during the holidays.
Gifts include blankets, toys, underwear, hats and gloves, etc. If you feel called to contribute make sure to join my newsletter to stay updated.
Ready for the roundup? Here we go…
