I wasn't going to put together our Martin Family Gift Guide for 2020 because families have enough struggles and worries this year and I don't want anyone feeling guilty if they can't make this Christmas "as wonderful" as Christmases past. I also feel bad because I do 95% of our shopping through Amazon, Walmart and Target and I know it's small shops that are struggling this year. But I have to be real, and this authentic, busy, tired mom of many needs to be able to shop online on her lunch break, or add something to a cart while waiting at piano lessons, and this is the easiest way for me to get it all completed. So I'm just listing the gifts my kids received this year, and hoping it blesses some of you readers who need some inspiration to get the job done so we can create a bit of magic as we say GOODBYE TO 2020! And maybe you can give your kid a moment like this:
