I am just a Mom—I want to love and cherish my family, make life simpler and raise kind humans. Basically, the same thing every parent wants, right?  

When I was unable to find a holiday tradition that was geared specifically to warming hearts, teaching generosity, and giving children the opportunity and responsibility to give--- I decided to make my own. It was important to me to give life to a tradition that didn't require me to DO more but TEACH more. 

The outcome was The Giving Sack.
