From the Office of Comfort Keepers here in Wallingford, Ct Would Like To Remind Senior Family Caregivers and Personal Care Companions to Assist Our In Home Seniors with their Christmas Gifting

By Carol Carbutti

The idea of gift giving to your family and friends is as old as the human race. The idea of exchanging gifts at Christmas dates all the way back to the birth of Jesus, when the three wise men traveled to deliver gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to the newborn baby. The shepherds in the fields also presented the new born baby with gifts.

Then in 1822 an author named Clement Clark Moore wrote the poem/story “T’was the Night before Christmas”.  This story became the most popular poem throughout the world, and this is how all the children became familiar with Santa Claus.  They now knew Santa Claus was the one who brought gifts on Christmas Eve, and they started traditionally hanging their stockings on the fireplace for more gifts the following Christmas Eve.

Today, the tradition of giving and receiving gifts is as much a part of Christmas as the Christmas tree, candy canes, and Christmas songs.

This story is from the office of Comfort Keepers a non-medical in home caregiving agency for healthy aging senior citizens of Wallingford, CT.  Carol Carbutti the owner would like to mention that we now service New Haven, Hamden (Zip Code 06514), North Haven, Cheshire, Durham, Middlefield, Middletown, Meriden, Waterbury, Southington, Kensington, Berlin, Newington, New Britain and Bristol.  If you have any questions please call (203) 697-1030 or email us at denisegryzbek@comfortkeepers.com
