I've mention before on this board that my bestfriend and my goddaughter are struggling financially. Sierra (My Goddaughter) is an absolute angel and I want her to have a beautiful Christmas. The problem is that Janeris and I both are pretty broke.
This is their first Christmas together in their own home. I want to make sure that it is wonderful for both of them. I've already decided to cook them a nice Christmas dinner and bake cookies with them.
Craig and I have a spare computer and monitor that we no longer use. We're giving them that as a Christmas present to them both. My biggest fear is that Sierra won't have many presents to open. I'm gonna try to help pay for their tree and decorations. So she will at least have that, and I think we'll string some popcorn too!
I want her to wake up and find a bundle of toys under that tree. I want to see the excitement in her eyes and I want her to squeal that Santa visited because she was a goooood girl.
Any ideas on how we can do this without much money??
I do know that I'm gonna spend at least $20 on buying her one good educational present. We spend so much time working with her. She'll be reading well before 4 years old. She's so smart!!!
Any tips, ideas, anything. MUCH appreciated.
