Well this year I decided to make my god daughter a special scrapbook of some of the pictures and memories that we all shared... It has taken me a long time to put it together... many late nights and long hours. It has been a labor of love that is for sure. But the end product should bring a smile to her face. Instead of putting my time into decorating my home...I put my time into homemade gifts for a lot of my love ones... breads candy and such. These are gifts from my heart... don't think you can put a monetary value on them. So I guess my sacrifice if you can call it that as been my time.

I don't see it as being about sacrifice, its about giving, its not the same thing. Give in joy, give in happiness, it is not actually a sacrifice, it is a pleasure to give something that others appreciate.

I gave up buying any gifts, Christmas has become to store bought. My family decided the only gift any of us would give is LOVE and that is priceless.
