[QUOTE="THAT Gurl, post: 3464583, member: 45551"] I went thru something similar. My first husband left me with 2 and a half kids when the doctors thought I had ovarian cancer during my 3rd pregnancy. Took everything we owned, emptied out the bank accounts and moved back to Arkansas. I checked out of the hospital, took my 2 kids that were on the ground and moved into the trashiest single-wide you've ever seen. Had a heater in it. Also had a whole in the living room wall big enough my 3-year-old could crawl thru it. It was the dead of winter and my landlord's (who was also a relative) solution was to stuff a rolled up blanket in the whole and call it good). I bought a package of green construction paper, a thing of Scotch tape and a big package of stick-on bows. I made tree outta the construction paper and taped it to the wall in the living room and let the kids decorate it with the bows. Put their presents under the tree. They got mostly clothes but thankfully they were young enough that opening packages was the thing that they enjoyed the most. What was in them was secondary. Well except for the last package -- which was a storage tub filled with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Boy Howdy!! Lol You would have thought they'd hit the Mother Lode. Lol When we talk about Christmases past the boys' all say that Christmas was their favorite. I find it interesting, to say the least, because that Christmas I felt like a complete, utter failure.
