I am thankful for my pastor and his wife, who are going to visit family in the same town as my sister lives. They are taking my Christmas presents to their in-laws house where my sister will pick it up, saving me a lot on postage and it has gifts to unwrap with things to do before Christmas. It all got arranged today and I will take it to them bright and early tomorrow. My sister has really been struggling and I thought early gifts would bring some joy. They were happy to do it!
