    i understand... my 14 and 16 year old, know christmas is gonna be tight, but my 9 year old just doesn't understand, why if i work all the time, we don't have money... he'll get a few things, but of course nothing close to what i'd like to be able to get him.

    everyone wants to do the very best for their kids

    My youngest is 19, my oldest will be 25 plus 2 more in between and I feel bad that I will have very little under the tree. This year will be real hard since hubby has received that the latest melanoma from his clavical is malignant. He has a hernia surgery scheduled for the 25th of this month and he is shi**en blood daily. Gushes of it. I think this may be his last Christmas so I'd like it to be special. But special isn't always stuff. But something more than a $25 giftcard per kid that I earned free online would be nice. Maybe a family portrait or something but I cannot afford that even.

    I would contact a local photographer and explain the situation. I bet they would be willing to give you a deal so you could have a special family memory like that!

    I am sorry for all those who want to do more. Maybe this coupon will help for the picture.

    Do you have a friend with a good digital camera? If so maybe they can come over and spend few hours taking many pictures of the family. That way you can remember the day....... not just that moment. Some of the greatest pictures are ones not posed.*hugs*
