It really is our only choice. I'm in a Joy & Healing class and everyday I have to pull out a moment of joy and work with the joy. Over time it becomes a natural thing to do.

Parents were told about the Giving Tree so it was an option for them to purchase that specific book for a specific child. We numbered the apples to maintain anonymity. You can email or call me if you want more details and in on our discussion about how it might work more smoothly next year! {bgruener5 at gmail.com}.

I was just talking with my principal about the fact that so often the book fair breaks my heart. I see quite a number of kids who don't have any $ to spend. At the same time they see so many of their friends buying fun items with cash from their parents. I am sure this really bothers the parents who are struggling to put food on the table too. <br /><br />I was trying to find a way to get $ into the hands of the kids that really need it so that they can enjoy the book fair too. Your giving tree looks like it just might fill that need.
