That girl is going to have a seriously blowout Christmas. :D

I hope so. It makes me think about this commercial (which also makes me cry every time I watch it).

Awww...now I'm all schmoopy. Except for the part of me that's going, "wait, Marines have to deliver toys in the snow in their dress uniforms? Dude, that must SUCK." :P

Mom and I do Toys for Tots every year instead of getting gifts for our massively massive family. They don't need any more stuff, and we like buying toys. (A LOT.)

I do Toys for Tots and the Angel Tree every year. I'm only doing one kid instead of lots of Angel Tree kids this year because of finances, but I'm pouring a lot into her because I get to focus, so it's cool. I remember what it was like not having money and not having a Christmas, so to me, charities like this are the most worthwhile.

(Hugs) that is an awesome program and I think its amazing what your doing for that little girl. I'm so glad you had a good holiday. Plus the people at work can shut the hell up because the black in Black Friday is talking about how normally businesses go into the black or the profit margin on that day because of all the money they make. It has nothing to do with being raciest so you can say it all you want. Plus I would love to hear someone call it African American Friday since it has nothing to do with a race of people, and I could mock them lol. Much love and Hugs!~Bee
