I picked an ornament from the Christmas tree at my local ymca?

Q. The idea is that you get the gift that is listed on the ornament for a child that is in need of a gift from a shelter. The ornament I picked has several gift ideas listed. My question is, Will the gift I gift be the only gift this child receives on Christmas or do they out these ornaments out at several different places? I do plan on gets just about everything listed as gift ideas, but I was just curious. The people at the Ymca didn't know the answer to my question and they didn't know how many gifts to get from each ornament.

A. In my area, the Giving Trees are operated through the local Community Action Agency. They take the names and wishes of those in need, and then distribute these names throughout the area. The child's name will go on one tree only, so that more children can be served and no one is left out.

The gifts you purchase will be the only gifts this child will receive though an *agency* yet they may not be the only gifts this child receives. Family and friends may be able to purchase a few small items... or maybe not. In these uncertain economic times when necessities are hard to come by, gifts are not always something one receives.



I just want to take a moment to thank you for your generosity. All too often I open this page to "What should I ask for this Christmas?' rather than, "What Can I Give?" Your's is a compassionate heart. I remember the years when I struggled mightily as a disabled single mom to put together a nice Christmas for my kids when dad wouldn't help and the support check didn't come... Thank you for helping a less fortunate child this Christmas. I pray that you are richly blessed. Merry Christmas... and a Happy Thanksgiving to you.


What is a good gift idea for my grandpa when I deploy?
Q. Well my grandpa's a very sentimental guy and he means so much to me. I know this is a weird question to ask. When I start deploying (I'm in the army) I want to do something where he and I both have some kind of trinket or something that we can exchange before I leave to remember each other by. And when I return, we will exchange again till the next time I get deployed. The problem is, I'm racking my brains trying to think of what. Any ideas? Thanks and please not negative comments!

A. Not strange. I think it's sweet. Here's some jewelry ideas. You can exchange dog tags.


What's a good list of "favorite" questions to ask my daughter's teacher for parents to send gifts?
Q. I am the room mom for my first grader and for my pre-k daughter. I want to make a list of "favorites" for their teachers to fill out and then send that list out to parents so they can send her gifts for Christmas if they like. What are good questions to ask her as favorites, such as, "What is your favorite store?" so that parents can send her gift cards to that store?

A. 1. Favorite Store
2. Restaurant
3. Hobby


Another idea is to make a 'Wish List'.
The teacher lists things she needs for her classroom. You put them on a sheet of paper and each parent can tear off the sheet of paper with the name of the item that they will buy for her.
This way, the teacher doesn't get 12 of the same thing.


What should I get my parents for Christmas?
Q. Hey guys, I need some gift ideas for the parents. I have a mom and dad to shop for they are not too picky, but I want to make them happy.

A. Do some observations, ask questions as to their likes and dislikes. Watch what your mom and dad like to wear. Maybe you can keep dad young by getting him an Ed Hardy T-shirt, and mom you can find out what kind of perfumes she likes. If all else fails, get them each a gift certificate for stores such as Gap or Old Navy. If you want to be safe, get them a gift certificate for a major store therefore they can get what they really like.
