except for one family who put their daycare payment in the card (so at first you think it's a gift) with no words of gratitude to the rest of my families who spoiled me rotten. The gifts are so appreciated as they came with words of gratitude in the cards they gave.
One family's gift just overwhelmed me to the point of tears and speechlessness. They scrapped book an album for me. The theme was what dcg would like me to do on my Christmas holiday. First page was how happy dcg is here with a lovely picture of her, 2nd page was an LCBO gift card so I can enjoy a glass of wine, next page a pedicure/manicure gift card, next page a gift card to a fine dining restaurant and last page a large cash gift to spend however I want just that it must be on myself because in their words I deserve it. The homemade card really touched my heart and the recognition of a job well done is HUGE. I had a good little happy cry over it and even my hubby was teary for this act of kindness. I'm a lucky provider.
