to bring back xmas spirit in our family

Granted by Heroes: pinkstrawberries, Yankeewomaninga
I have a wish up for my brothers and sisters to be adopted for xmas but I don't think my prayer will be answered. We haven't had a tree or a xmas for 2 years due to financial problems. We just can't get on top. I'm wishing for a fake xmas tree and some decorations. We don't have any gifts or won't even after trying numerous and numerous of places. I would love to kind of bring back the xmas spirit with a christmas tree for my family. I'm tired of being so poor and just want a tree and nice xmas like other people. We just look at my brothers and sisters and cry when they are looking for their gifts and there aren't any. Ty so much for reading my wish. I hope and pray we can find help and a xmas angel

    I will buy you so some ornaments and mail them early December. I will check to see if I can buy stockings..but don't count me on that one. How many are living in the home? I know the four kids and you. so five and your mom and dad. but you mentioned a grandma. So is that seven? I may even have some extra stockings in my christmas totes. I will check later today. So right now for sure on ornaments.

    I could not pass by this wish. I will do what I can to bring some smiles to this family for Christmas. Jesus did so much more for us.

Have you received the tree yet? Said it was delivered Saturday. Does it have all it's parts? Lights will be coming from Lowes if they haven't already. And the rest of the ornaments and garland I have here at my house that I will need to mail by the 5th or so. I have a craft show on the 3rd I need to get ready for and attend to. :) Take care.

My family and I are so thankful for what your doing for us
we know Christmas is not about gifts but CHRIST
We all know who believes in Jesus Christ that there are angels in heaven that GOD appoints to watch over us. But sometimes GOD sends people to help others you are one of those angles to me and my family. We will pray that GOD shows you favor this year and next year for all your good deeds. Thanks a million again
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family

Pinkstrawberries god bless your heart. Ty so much for all u do. We are still in need of stockings and I'm still praying for a tree to put up but if we can't get one that's fine we are so blessed with the help already.

Can anyone help with a tree? Walmart has one for $30 prelit if they pick it up at their store if it's still in stock....

I have some stockings if you'd like..won't let me add it to the offer up above. I can send in December package. Let me know if you still need them. Bought some ornaments and garland today.....

Hi Sabrina, feel free to email me. We have one store in town that has affordable ornaments. I know you are not picky sweetheart. But would you prefer traditional, red/green/gold/silver, or blues/silvers or bright pretty colors like bright greens, blues, oranges and purples? I can't afford a tree unless I do good at my craft sale. If so do you have a walmart I could have you pick it up at to save on huge shipping? Let me know. Email or message me on here..if it's just a comment I don't know it's here.

Yankeewomaninga made a mistake and sent the offer to this wish instead of the other one. She is a blessing and getting gifts. Now we really need a tree to put the gifts under. Can anyone please help us with a tree and decorations. We would be so grateful to have a decorated tree this year.

We still are in need of a tree and 4 stockings. We were adopted for gifts but have nothing to put them under. Can u find it in your heart to get us a beautiful tree and decorations. This would be the best xmas ever. She adopted us for xmas gifts but please we need a tree and decorations. Ty heros
