Juan asked me to buy gifts for his 14 friends in school. Sure, no problem, I said. Christmas by the way is the best time to remember people close to a person's life. It is just that today is Juan''s actual Christmas party.
A mom has got to do what she's got to do. I checked my stash of presents under the Christmas tree. Nothing that fits 11 and 12 year old boys. I have an hour left. Think. Think. Think.
As I was about to have a cup of coffee, I saw this pack of Kisses Hugs Christmas Edition which I bought last week.
I grabbed the scissors, tape and Christmas cards and turn everything into a simple present for Juan's friends.
It may not be much but as the saying goes, "it's the thought that counts.
"Christmas will always be as long as we stand heart to heart and hand in hand."
- Dr. Seuss
