Halloween is officially over. So now it’s time to talk about something REALLY scary… There are only 53 shopping days left until Christmas!!! And for those of us celebrating Chanukah, there’s a few weeks less than that! Every year the holidays seem to sneak up faster and faster.

And us kids wouldn’t even be half the people we are (well, biologically, I guess it is half, but you know what I mean), without your love, support and guidance.
