To the editor:
I am the mother of Kyle, Christian and Jaycie, the children mentioned in the Toybox article on Friday. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. If it were not for the Toybox program I simply don't know what I would do this year. I am a single mother who is doing good to make my living expenses right now, and I was really worried about Christmas this year. I am so glad there are programs to help and that Christmas will be special for my children. This is not something I was proud of doing, but sometimes we have to do things we don't want to when it comes to making our children happy. Without the Toybox program, they would not be.
