It only takes money to buy a gift. It takes love and caring to make one.

The Gifts That We Remember By Franklin Price 12/27/2018 The gifts that we remember Are the ones that can't be bought They're made by busy loving hands Created with some thought Time and effort given selflessly To bring another joy For an adult a mindful keepsake For a child a hand-made toy Sometimes it's not a thing at all But a phone call made by choice To tell another that you love them And just had to hear their voice Thank you friends and family Who have made this season best For gifts and calls and cards you sent For putting Facebook to the test If you received or gave such gifts In this festive month, December There are eleven other months For thoughtful actions to remember
