Care Packages For Everyone You Loves

Ho Ho Ho - Real flowers needs a lot of time for maintenance while fake Christmas flowers do not require such high maintenance.

My mom used to send care packages every few weeks to me. I absolutely loved receiving them and my roommates were always envious of the fact that my mom took the time to do something so sweet for me. The care packages were always filled with goodies that were inhaled in no time at all.

Ho Ho Ho - Make a pattern of your desired Christmas flower, and then carefully cut it.

She'd send candy bars, cookies, crackers and my favorite granola bars. Every so often she'd put some surprises in the care packages that weren't anything expensive but things that I needed.

She'd send disposable cameras or a pack of new pens or markers.

Sometimes the care packages contained seasonal items like Christmas decorations or new slippers. I loved her care packages. Now that I'm all grown up, I miss getting those familiar care packages.

College students are not the only ones who may be needing care packages. We have many oversea soldiers who could use some necessary items and some things from home. Those soldiers don't have the luxuries of many of the simple things we take for granted.

Ho Ho Ho - Get a picture of your desired Christmas flower. This would at least give you an idea what kind of materials you'll need in creating your own Christmas flower.

Care packages for soldiers can be purchased through organizations such as USO even if you do not have any loved ones currently overseas. Those soldiers are over there defending our country and care packages are excellent ways to thank them for that.

Some of the care packages could contain prepaid calling cards, sunscreen, disposable cameras and toiletries. Many soldiers appreciate when care packages have letters or cards in them letting them know that people are thinking of them even when they are not at home.

Ho Ho Ho - Take the total of your Christmas expenses and divide it by the total amount of pays until next Christmas.

Care packages might also include some favorite snacks or smaller items. I've known some soldiers that have received footballs in their care packages and absolutely loved it. Those recipients have told me how nice it is to be able to throw a football around with some fellow soldiers and relax quite a bit.

Just remember that care packages are always welcomed by people no matter where they are or what they are doing. Fill them with goodies and lots of love.

Ho Ho Ho - When you are doing your shopping use a calculator to make sure you stay within your Christmas budget.

Many moms and dads across the world right now are having empty-nest syndrome. Suddenly, the once noisy household that was bustling with busy schedules and teenagers isn't quite so hectic anymore. Those teenagers have left for college.

Not only do the moms and dads feel a bit lost without their child under the same roof, but the college students can feel homesick as well. One of the best ways to stay in touch with your college student and put a smile on their faces are to send care packages. Those care packages can sometimes mean more than a parent will ever know.
