This is something special you can do for a close friend, family, relative during the hectic days before Christmas. You give them 1 gift each day for 12 days before Christmas. You type the verbiage on a little card or make it more personal by handwriting the card and put on wrapped gift on their door step. You can always mail the gifts if they live too far away. Below is the verbiage along with gift idea you can give.
