In Awe of Angel Tree

For one family, Angel Tree is a treasured—but sometimes heartbreaking—holiday tradition.

As the holidays approach, most children’s thoughts turn to gifts. As an adult, I am of course thinking about this Advent season, and the birth of Jesus. In all honesty, though, my thoughts are also turn to having our grown children home with us, what activities I should plan, holiday baking traditions, meal planning, how much can we fit in the course of a week?
