review 1: The author wrote about her family's first Christmas, just three months after her husband died of a heart attack. The story tells of how she dealt with a holiday that had always been so special, and how her three children attempted to "get through". A good book, that will leave you thinking about people you've lost...and wondering how such an event would affect you. I recommend it, especially for this time of year.
review 2: Truly inspiring! A family experiencing the loss of a loved one often does NOT want to celebrate Christmas.This book is the true story of how the Smith family found love, healing, and even joy in the Christmas season as their friends loved on them through acts of kindness via Christmas gifts left on their porch to the tune of the Twelve Da... moreys of Christmas.Yet this is just the beginning of the story. The book also shares the story of the gift givers.This book is truly inspiring! Highly recommended!Quotes: Even in moments of deepest grief, we can give to others.The power of their gifts lies in the understanding that joy and sorrow can coexist comfortably and without guilt.This is how I can say our children's lives helped someone else.One of the greatest gifts we all possess is the ability to give - all you need is a kind heart and compassion. less
