PJS are always a winner for a christmas gift and yours look great. Besides, giving of our time is much more personal than anything we can buy. Personally, I think we should all approach Christmas as though money is tight. We are giving gifts to only our two grand kids, cooking a big roast for sandwhiches and making some cookies and pies. We plan on playing games and watching Christmas movies. There will probably be a marathon monopoly game. I probably should find some extra monopoly money so the bank will not run out of money. I remember one Christmas during WWII when money must have been really tight. My mother took one of my dolls and made a "whole bunch" of clothes for her while my dad took a wooden box and made a closet where they were hanging. Dad used some of the wooden boxes to make a toy chest. These were painted a dark purple (which only he appreciated), but for whatever reason this is one of the few Christmas times I really remember.
