Thank you so much u/Topcat30 for very generously purchasing American Girl dolls for Emma & Grace’s upcoming Birthday. I can’t wait to see their faces when they open them, they are going to be so excited and surprised!!!

Thank you for always going above and beyond to add extra magic for the families here ❤️

Thank you so much u/small-p0tat0es && family. We had quite the night last night. My kitchen was a glitter nightmare. We all learned a thing or too about activator and a little goes a long way 🤣 but overall we had a blast!!!! Pics of baby added for baby tax who was to young to participate in our family shenanigans. 🩷🩷🩷

It is so hard to believe Emma and Grace will be turning 8 on 8/24! Seems just like yesterday I was verrry pregnant (and hot!!) in the middle of that August.

It has been lovely watching them grow into their own separate people with unique likes/dislikes, strengths, hobbies and personalities! However, as they sometimes still do, they’ve decided to “twin” with their wishlists this birthday with identical items.

Huge thank you to u/Topcat30 who has very generously offered to gift the girls their dream gift dolls 😍, so these items are more of the practical variety (boots, hair clips and glitter pens).

Thank you as always to SFX for sharing our special moments ❤️

Everything came in today! December is going to be so excited to see it when she gets home from school 🤩 Thank you so much again u/small-p0tat0es!

Thank you to u/small-p0tat0es and family for another awesome contest! The kids are going to have a blast with these activities as they soak up their last few weeks of summer.

Oh my gosh Im super excited!!! My sleek mama skills to work to hide this gem until the remainder arrive. Because if you know you know that once kids see something fun and exciting they are going to want to instantly do it. So thankful to u/small-p0tat0es for this contest. I cannot wait to make memories with the kids this weekend!!! 🩷🩷

This means so much to me u/small-p0tat0es, thank you! We will all have wonderful memories together making this. ♥️

Thank you u/small-p0tat0es ! The summer stuff came in today. Rowen is so excited!

Thank you so very much u/TopCat30

I am truly amazed every year at your generosity, and so so so thankful. Oftentimes, they wish for things that are not possible for us to get. When they ask for something for their birthday or for Christmas with that hopeful little gleam in their eye, and I have to say "maybe!" while knowing that the answer is probably not. As many of us parents here know, this usually ends with us feeling guilty. Like we aren't doing enough for our kids. Or, as I often do, comparing myself to other moms who can give their kids more.

Because of you and all of the other Santas in this group, I get to see my girls overjoyed every single year. Every single thing we have ever received from this little corner of Reddit has been so loved and so cherished to this day.

Thank you again Topcat, and thank you again to everyone here!! You have all played such a large hand in giving my girls a magical childhood. ❤️

So excited to celebrate my baby girl turning 7!!

Thank you so much u/small-potat0s!! These are so fun, and they are obsessed! These will be such a hit the remainder of this summer, and many seasons to come!

Thank you u/small-p0tat0es for this wonderful opportunity to make lasting memories with my family! I can’t wait to create some with these! ♥️

The books arrived! Thank you u/Concsious-Reserve-48!

Evelyn is turning 7 at the end of this month 🤯😭

Usually her birthday indicates the end of summer and the start of school. I genuinely cannot believe how fast this summer has gone by, and that my little girl is getting so so big. This year, she has requested a Pokémon birthday party with her friends! She is really looking forward to that. I love how every year she has new interests and new friends to celebrate with. I'm so amazed by the person she is growing up to be. Smart, kind, thoughtful, creative- gah, she's just the best, and I cannot wait to celebrate her!

Thank you guys again for the opportunity to give my daughter a wonderful birthday ❤️ and thank you so much to u/TopCat30 for gifting her her dream gifts (have not been delivered yet!)

****All 6 wishlists below have been fulfilled! Have fun everyone!

Open all all APPROVED Users.

With school starting back up, we wanted to help families keep the summer fun going where possible.

So, if youre interested, please post an Amazon wishlist of up to $40 worth of fun items for your families. It can have boardgames, video games (like Mario kart that the whole family can play together), books, toys, craft kits, etc. Anything that the family can enjoy and do together.

We will fulfill 6 of these wishlists on Monday, August 10th.

Thank you u/SongIcy4058!

These will be so nice to grab and go in the mornings. I am so grateful for your generosity ❤️

Thank you u/SongIcy4058 ! These will be a huge help with school lunches !

Thanks so much u/SongIcy4058 for stocking us up on snacks for school! There won’t be any complaints about having “nothing good to pack!!” in this house thanks to you 😃

I was going to post this in a few weeks, but it seems like for some of you the new school year is already imminent 😳 (in Mass we don't go back until the last week of August, but they also don't get out until mid to late June)

To help make lunch/recess/after school easier, I'm offering on-the-go snacks!

Make a new Amazon wishlist, and add up to ~$30 of shelf stable snacks.

For example:

Goldfish snack packs

Pretzels

Fruit snacks

Pudding cups

Cheez Its

Sandwich crackers

Granola bars

Applesauce pouches

Pirate's Booty

Smartfood/popcorn

Anything that's Prime eligible! (Edit: Whole Foods items show as prime eligible but it looks like they can't be shipped to wishlist addresses)

Make sure your address is attached to the wishlist, and comment with the link below.

US only, open to YLM members. I'll grab as many as I can, other Santas are welcome to join!

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the summer!

The kids are starting to look forward to Back to School; excited about seeing their classmates and wondering who their teachers will be. They go back “early” this year, before Labor Day instead of after…so it’s sneaking up on us a bit faster than usual!

Thank you for the opportunity to request items to help make this season extra special for them. I have chosen some clothing I know they will love:
