I am going to make him an album to keep all of the donations slips in and hopefully he will have an album full of adopted children when he gets older.

It provides a great gift, and the store benefits. I currently have a favorite store that benefits the Humane Society. Part of my free time is spent looking and I don&#39;t always find anything gift worthy, but each day is fun. I know this might not work with every family, but (so far) it had gone over well in our family.Melyndahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17924210552692980145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733035893331842827.post-39197006220509890952009-12-04T09:59:51.626-05:002009-12-04T09:59:51.626-05:00Good ideas. <br /><br />#2 will be good for our grown sons.<br /><br />And I do love to bake cookies.carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04346285464750146290noreply@blogger.com
