Chanukah was the first time we received a package, it created quite a pleasant stir from all the kids here. Try to imagine regular day. And I mean regular…, homework, dishes, bills, clutter all over, tired mommy, busy siblings and suddenly there's a knock on the door and someone hands the kids a package.Whew! Excitement reigns…. It took a little figuring until we realized that this package was a gift from an organization. It would have been nice if you could have seen the shine in their faces as they examined the contents. When it comes to surprises, age seems to play no role. Even the older teenage children took the time to share in the excitement.
