What is Christmas going to look like this year?

This year instead of buying my kids a lot of presents, they are getting 2 and their stockings. This year we are each adopting a child off the "Angel Tree" in our area and buying presents for someone else that is in need. We are living in one room right now and we do not have the space for a lot of things. My kids have been adopted off those trees in the past and this year we are giving back. I want them to experience the joy of providing for others. They have seen it from me when I have helped people out, but I want them to experience it for themselves. We are also going to be baking cookies and taking cookie plates around to all the neighbors where we live. That will be at least 20 cookie plates. Depending on what all we get done, I may make cookie bags for the people I deliver to on Christmas Eve for work. I will probably make a cookie platter for the McDonald’s that I am always picking up from. I will also take one to the Gyro restaurant as the owner has always been a great guy to deal with.

I really need to sit down and start thinking about what to do about this coming Christmas. We have been invited out for Christmas dinner, but I'm not sure what to do until I see the numbers later in the year.

My mom's area keeps getting new cases so we are waiting to see what goes on before we make any solid plans.

It's what we used to do growing up. We've never really had neighbors before so this will be fun.
