So DD and I are sitting there Christmas morn, we hear a cell go off. DD checks to see if it is DH's. We often check it for him, and no he doesn't care since he isn't big into text and such, we usually have to assist him with sending and viewing them. Well, there was a new text from his friend, a co worker. We are both looking at it, it says "Thank you J! I've never seen these kids sooooo excited. hahaha" we are like :confused3 then another comes, it is a video... here is what we saw:

turn your volume up!






so we are like, what the heck did he do???? Well he walks in and we show it to him. He was smiling and said wow thats so awesome. I am like, what was it? what did you get them? He said Sony Playstation 3. He said, their father has been out of work for a year and a half, hurt himself and has been getting surgeries and such. He only gets a minimal amount of pay.They are broke and he just wanted to get the kids something "cool" for Xmas. My hubby does very little shopping ever. He just is a saver and doesn't spend money unless he really wants or needs something, and he saves up for it. Now mind you, he never mentioned any of this to me, I do the money in the house, he could of asked for the money out of "our" money. I spend so much all the time, him asking for this amount would be nothing to what I spend shopping all the time. But he didnt, he used his own "stash" to do this. He only gets a small amount into his own lil "play" account, but he saves and saves... I spend and spend. He just is sooo thoughtful! He really loves helping others and I am just sooooo thrilled that my guy, made two lil boys so happy this Christmas morning! And obviously, so happy for those kids!! He spoke with the parents later and the wife cried, she was so relieved that her kids had gotten something they were crazy over. They had no money to shop for them and she was so sad about it. He really made their Christmas special.

He got another video, of the kids thanking him :thumbsup2 What sweet kids they are too!

Ya, this is what Christmas is all about! :goodvibes
 
Oh that made me cry - your husband is a wonderful man :hug:
 

Wow, that's amazing! How great of your husband!
 
I have tears in my eyes. What a great thing your husband did for that family. That is what christmas is about!:santa:
 
Oh wow, that is so wonderful! :goodvibes
 
ya, and it touched me when the two brothers hugged eachother- it just spoke of closeness- something between them that you could see was special- I can't really explain it. :goodvibes
 
AWSOME!

This IS what it is all about! I love their reaction cause you can tell it was unexpected, some kids have such a sense of entitlement and just expect to get what ever they ask for!
 
You must be tremendously proud of your husband. What a great act of kindness!
 
That's it. That right there just made my whole season.
