    Christmas Toys

    This is a Pic of the 500+ toys that I sent out this Christmas to Needy Kids


    Too many to spread out so I left them piled up in boxes. The smaller ones go to churches that in the shoe boxes for Samaritin's Purse. They go off shore. The larger ones go to local organizations that look after needy kids

    That's AWESOME. Thanks for helping those in need.
    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "...Holy Cow....what a ride!"

    Paul,

    IIRC, I remember seeing a similar post like this last year. You do a great job on those toys and I am sure they are much appreciated. Thanks for what you do!

    Smile

    Paul,
    WOW, what a great gift from the heart.
    How long did it take you to make them? I make toy trucks and doll furniture and would have to retire to build at your pace.
    Thanks for your caring. Nothing like the smile of a little one when you hand them their own one of a kind toy.

    Thumbs up another peek into Santa's workshop

    Great effort yet again!
    Congrats Paul, on being a kind and generous woodworker.

    The toys look terrific, and will spread much joy.
    You inspire with your love in action...
    talk about wonderful Christmas Spirit!

    You do Canada and woodworkers everywhere proud.
    Merry Christmas, you big elf!

    be well,
    Walt

    ps I like how you make your toys sooo colourful

    Smile Truely gifts from the heart...

    What a wonderful thing to do for the less fortunate children. Those will surely make some smiles on Christmas.

    Now, that is first class! Wonderful gifts to those for whom life has not been kind. I am sure they will be appreciated - probably much more so than the gifts received by some more fortunate children.
