We had a difficult time trying to make $2, buy gifts for four little boys. Even back in october she had chosen So carefully jeans, T. shirts, socks, underwear, and one inexpensive toy for each child. She kept picking up a gaily painted ball, then putting it down. Finally, she gasped, I must take this for the baby. He's not even two yet. I want him to have a toy. I could not say a word. I had a lump as big as a watermelon in my throat. At last the pathetic little selections were made and she left with her parcel Such a small parcel for four small boys.
