Angels

One of Maggie's favorite traditions at Christmas time is the Angel Tree at church. Around Thanksgiving she starts asking about it. She sometimes even puts her request in early to the woman running it. This year...a 9 year-old girl that loves art. She was indulged and one such girl was put aside for her. I was a bit taken aback a few years ago when we started supporting this ministry. I wasn't too sure how I felt about supporting prisoners...but quickly realized it wasn't their kids fault their parents made poor choices to land themselves in prison. I am more than happy to help a child feel a bit more happiness in an otherwise sad and unfortunate situation. I'm glad Maggie feels the same way.
