One of their gifts was the gift to the little girl and my oldest made a quilt her first to go with it. That changed her whole perspective on Christmas everyone was changed. The rest of the month of December was a life changing event for them. She no longer demanded any gifts from me and I have to say this was the BEST Christmas I have ever had with all of them. Even my 5 yo was more concerned about his sisters than he was with what santa bought him. My gift was seeing the change in all of my kids it was such a blessing!!
