ReplyDeleteTruly selfless gifts... thanks for sharing. It's true that sometimes the real essence of Christmas tends to get lost.
ReplyDeleteI love the different kinds of trees you featured.
Forgiveness, a good thing! A wonderful caring post. May we all take guidance from this.
ReplyDeletePS I saw the cover of the Valentino movie and noticed he has a family of little ones too (pugs) just like you!
Hugs and Relax and enjoy the Holiday

Jesus is the reason for the season! Haha. I'm not super religous so i always forget too, especially when i'm stressing over christmas shopping.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love that first photo!
ReplyDeleteVery unique xmas trees!
ReplyDeleteLast photo with the pussy cats makes me want to run out and buy an armful of kittens!... "patience" I think is a good wish for the season. Gorgeous photos as always dear Lenore! XX's
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I love the trees! And good wishes too!
ReplyDeleteI gotta agree with the wee babe on this one. My 15-year old mountain bike that I'd managed to keep alive got stolen out my garage, so I really wouldn't mind one, Santa...
ReplyDeleteI like these gifts!
ReplyDeleteand your trees :)
loves
those are the best gift ideas I've heard yet.
ReplyDeletepatience and understanding for all mankind.
ReplyDeleteSimply Mel,
ReplyDeleteI'm working on 'patience'
~unfortunately not one of my virtues, still work in progress~
Thanks everyone!
Wonderful sentiments Lenore.
ReplyDeleteWe should remember the reason for the season.
I am all ears for your blah blah blahs ! xxx
have a lovely christmas :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Christmas, love all of these fun Christmas photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat suggestions! I'm definitely think listening and caring is something the world could use more of!

yes!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures and important things for us to think about at this time of the year.
ReplyDelete(my favorite image is the one on the bottom, love it)
Happy Holidays
I adore every one of these ideas, sweet Lenore. You have a big heart, and I'm sending you warm hugs on this solstice night.

Beautiful! Thanks for the reminder. Merry Christmas, sweetie! xoxo
ReplyDeleteExcellent gifts with the true meaning of the season.
ReplyDeleteBut wait--the consumerism is the best part.
ReplyDeleteUm, and Santa, I'd love those red pumps from the last photo. Yes please.
My two gifts are happiness and humility.
ReplyDeleteI wish everyone could find the thing (or person) that makes their heart sing.
And I hope one of the "silver linings" to this horrible recession is that it gives people more compassion about those less fortunate. As my parents were fond of saying, "But for the grace of God, there go I."
Gorgeous post, lady! I needed this reminder :)
ReplyDeletewonderful post darling xx
ReplyDeleteLovely finds! I took so long in getting my tree this year that when I finally got around to it all the suitable ones were sold out. Going to definitely find an alternative now... ♥
ReplyDeletepersonally, i really like this one

i can't help it, the charm gets to me every time. i'd be perfectly happy giving a sad little tree a home.

Fabulous post and it rings loud & true. My only additions could be the gift of a smile, and understanding without judgment. The judgment piece is one that I have to keep reminding family members when we expect others to think just like one of us.
ReplyDeleteThat and the iphone. Love ya x
I love Christmas! I don't like to use it as a personal reminder for my transgressions, but I do believe the birth of Christ is the best gift given to us, and that is a great reminder! Great post!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have an amazing Christmas!! I'm very grateful for you- one of my favorite bloggers indeed! xxoo
Those all sound like good wishes to me. I don't know if the good customer service will catch on.....,I wish!
