A Christmas Tree That Carried Joy

When my daughter, who had recently delivered twin boys, planned a Christmas photo shoot with her babies, she asked if I could check the Just Swap group for a Christmas tree.

I posted a simple request. Within no time, Deepa Prasad responded, sharing a picture of a tree she thought might suit our need. It was perfect. When I asked her the cost, she gently said I could have it for free — she had two.

When she heard the reason for the request, she also offered to include some ornaments.

I was deeply moved by her thoughtfulness. The photo shoot was a joy — the babies slept peacefully through it, and my daughter had her heart full capturing the moment.

Just Swap made more than a match that day. It connected us to generosity, kindness, and a reminder that sharing often brings more happiness than buying ever could.
