Today I was able to pass it along to a neighbor who has had to go into an assisted living (locked unit). She was happy to get it though I doubt she will remember who it's from. It doesn't matter. It was a joy to give it to her and the memory of how it brightened her face and her little room will remain with me through the holidays and every time I think of it. Merry Christmas, everyone.


Thank you for your story. God bless you.
