I gave Mary the three packages this morning and she opened them here, so I got to see the ornaments and messages from them. All of them were so well received and she ooohed and aahed, and turned them over in her hands again and again. The messages were so dear that they again brought tears to her eyes, and she said she'll send thank you's to each of you.

I told her a little about each of you as she looked at them, and it was funny to think that I have only met a few face to face and yet felt as if i knew you.
Ron, that santa carving is a wonder..love the little backpack of toys. HI Ho, you and your wife made a new friend with your card and generosity. She loved the little cross on the back of Santa's head.
Kenny, she went on and on about the furry top hat on Santa, and wants to learn how to do that, and loves the other one as well.

I keep going on and on about how you all are amazing me...but, Mary is the one who is receiving all of this holiday cheer, and it just makes me feel warm inside to witness it.
Thanks again,
Christina / Thor

Couldn't have said it any better Dave and that is a BIG AMEN!

Dave and Kenny said it all. It was my pleasure to do it for her. I can't see smiles but I like being able to make them happen.

HI all,
An update on Mary. She has received a wonderful woodspirit from Mary McBrien. Once again, we both admired the carving, and were thrilled with the act of generousity.

Mel, the tiniest Santa with the tiniest angel peeking out from behind him is the dearest little thing! Wonderful gift, and Mary isn't the only one in awe of the carving. Thanks so much for both of you being so generous and spreading Christmas cheer!
Thor
