I have lots of favorites, like the memories of going to bed early so Santa could come. I remember how hard it was to go to sleep. Every sound meant it could be him.

We had a big family and when all arrived we would fill the house. It was always fun to see what my dad had bought for my mother. It was always as big of a surprise to him as it was to us because one of my sisters did the shopping for him.

The crescendo of hate they espouse has become as loud as a sonic boom and is intended to send us hiding under our beds in fear. As for me, I don’t buy their hateful rhet- oric.

That said, I’d like to share with you a story from a Vintage article that has been lying around my house for years. It warmed my heart, as I’m sure it will warm yours, as it tells the story of the true mean- ing of Christmas. I hope it will make your Christmas more joyful as it did mine.

As written by Abigail Bradshaw, 1898:

A Child’s Christmas My neighbor’s daughter is an invalid and rarely able to come out of her room. Even as we pass by her house, she often waves to us and we wave back. Yet this Christmas I dis- covered that Alexa has experienced more joy than most of us have through childhood and well into our adult years. My family received an invitation to par- ticipate in a special Christmas born of her inspiration while sitting in the window of her room. You see, she has had time to sit and watch the world around her while the rest of us march on by ignorantly. She noticed the eight little Tuttle children living across the street, their widowed moth- The Corbin Tourism and er working as cook for the Hamilton family.

To their surprise, she told them you for your support! she wanted nothing for herself. But she wanted to give a grand Christmas dinner in her room for the Tuttle children, to purchase Photo submitted. gifts for them with the money they would have spent on her . I will never forget the grand Christmas in Alexa’s room. After turkey, plum pudding, mince pie and more food than the Tuttles had ever seen on their plates before, the table was cleared. Then a door was opened to the next room. There in the corner next to Alexa’s bed was a brilliant Christmas tree with Alexa’s pres- ents to the Tuttle children carefully laid out. Every child received a warm coat of just the right size. Then after the useful presents, Alexa gleefully watched as dolls, books and a magnificent Noah’s Ark and a tiny tool chest were opened by the spellbound children.
