Toys for Tots - Or something close

FOR GOODNESS SAKE: #87 Participate in Toys for Tots

This year my work ‘adopted’ two families from the Lund Family Center (www.lundfamilycenter.org) for Christmas. The women provided a list of things they needed and wanted for themselves and their child(ren). One of the things on one of the women’s list was toys and crafts for her 3 month old daughter.

I pulled that tag and went to Toys R Us and had a lot of fun picking out toys. I could have bought so many, but tried to keep myself in check. I went to the store thinking about the toys I remember my brother playing with or the toys my niece enjoyed or the toys my nephews are playing with. I knew just what I wanted to get, but once I got to the store, I was kind of disappointed by the selection and wasn’t able to get a few of the things I really wanted. But I was able to find a few toys that were similar to what I wanted to get and some other great toys that I didn’t think of or that she can grow into.

(I know this isn’t technically Toys for Tots, but since I bought toys for a baby, I figured I could count it.)
