Here's the boys main present. Clothes they'll outgrow, toys will get broken or forgotten about, but these will last them for generations. They each get one every year.
Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you all have a enjoyable and safe day. Let's remember the ones that can't be with us, or are away from their families. Pocket knifes are a great gift. These are the first ones for my son and daughter. I have the larger version Gerber as my edc. They were very excited opening these.
Today was probably the hardest day I've ever had to leave for work. At least i was home in the morning to see the kids open presents and was not dragging a$$ tired from working midnight. I feel for anyone that has recently divorced, been widowed or is just alone today. schlot had some really powerful words in his thread.
I can relate Jet, been there and still doing that. I'm lucky to have this week off from my night job. For the first 22 years of service I had to work unless xmas landed on my day off. It sucked. And you also made me smile, I know the feeling when you work a double or are coming off a night shift and you try to stay awake to share xmas with the family. Kudos to you reaching out to the less fortunate and those that are having a tough go at it this time of year. Peace brother!
