This just goes to show you doing good reaps a lot of benefits especially....when you do not expect a reward. This a wonderful show of compassion. Too bad we cannot see a pic of your personal SC

What a wonderful story! Your husband should have said "yes, I'm Santa...I hope you've been good this year for your mom!"

Congrats on your fabric find, too!

That is the true spirit of Christmas. Bless you and your dear husband for helping that family. Good score of the fabrics too. Love the blue poinsettias. Merry Christmas.

Wonderful of your husband to step up to help this family! Once my kids stopped believing in Santa, I made it a point to help them understand that "we" are all Santa to someone who has less than us.

Love the fabrics!

I did a construction job at the power plant in Millsboro, DE (lower slower DE). Loved the area and meet some great people there. God bless you and your DH.

That was a wonderful thing your husband did. I guess there are a lot of Santas out there. You got a good bargain on the fabric too. Merry Christmas to you and yours Pat
