my daughter is so sweet

What a great idea. I think visiting people at the nursing home is a great experience and means so much to people who may not have anyone come because they don't have anyone or they are too far. There faces just light up! Wal Mart has a tree for adopting a senior we did this year. My daughter and I picked a name and a gift and most just wanted some warm jammies or socks and necessities.

Aye, that is pretty good. Heartwarming too. Very good story Pop. I agree plenty of people (not just kids) fail to grasp the meaning of the season. And then there are others that have no iota of compassion or sharing in season or out. Some people can be very selfish and wrapped in themselves. Too "me me me"-ish in my opinion. I'm glad your daughter learned something else and got to do something about giving and sharing.

Thats so sweet of you and her , You both must have made their whole Christmas so much Cheerier ... Thank-you for doing this wonderful deed , and for sharing this ... Mostly for bringing them joy at this time of year ... So thoughtful ... I`m glad you were able to show her the importance of giving ... She`ll remember how she felt for the rest of her life ... TWO THUMBS UP !!!!

it is nice. sometimes children work more responsible than elders. it is very nice of her to know the fun in giving others. I think she is a very good kid.

I love your idea, you are such a good mom to teach your child in this way. There are going to be so many happy people getting your gift bags. You also have a very sweet daughter, she looks so proud and happy with all the gift bags that you both made. Great idea.

Hi there, Pop! You have given your daughter one of the greatest gifts this year! You have taught her the true meaning of Christmas, that it is better to give than to receive. This is why she was so excited! Your daughter is still very young, so she won't really have anything to give other than perhaps old toys she doesn't play with to a young child who needs something to play with. You put forth the effort to make sure you daughter has something to remember of this Christmas! Another thing you have done is taught your daughter a beautiful truth while she is young. She will remember this forever. What a precious experience you have given her! I wish there were more people who thought as you do. Your post has been very encouraging, and I commend you on what a great thing you have done here. Keep up the good work!
