    Love your box as always, love your heart even more!! I had no idea you’ve been through all the pain and discomfort, for you always share positive, encouraging, inspirational videos with your lovely gentle sweet voice! Pray the surgery goes super smoothly, and full recovery for you, also the strength your family needs. 🙏❤️

    Beautiful boxes❤ My favorite items in each box are the adorable Suishmellows! I like the idea of 2 Barbies in a box for the young lady to have an extra to play with a friend or sibling. I will be praying for you. I had a knee replacement years ago. I did not have a difficult recovery, but physical therapy is vital.😊

The flower lego kits goes well with the caterpillar stuffy. Very cool Fox scunchie. My favorite is the Polly Pocket. Great deal on the dress. So cool that you included a full set of earrings. The second shoebox is equally as fun. Thanks for sharing, Denise! Love you showed no themed shoeboxes. Prayers for a full recovery!!

    Hi, these ate great boxes for the older girls. Do you ever include toothpaste & a bar of soap? May I ask where you found the menstrual pads? Thank you.

      Toothpaste is not allowed to be sent from the U.S. Soap has become an increased issue and will be phased out after this year. The menstrual pads were purchased on Amazon. Hope this helps! Thank you for watching! 💕

    Do what you can. Consider prerecordeding some unboxing videos.

    I will definitely be keeping you in my prayers.
    Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all of your heart, lean not on your own understanding. Acknowledge the Lord in all of your ways and he will make your path straight.
