Three-year-old Hannah placed a reindeer ornament on the Christmas tree while her mother put on the sparkling red star topper. The tree with its colorful lights lit up the room.
Hannah’s mother admired its beauty. “Your father will be very surprised.”
“Do you think Santa will bring me everything I asked for?” Hannah danced in a circle.
“Presents aren’t the true meaning of Christmas. We celebrate the birth of baby Jesus.”
Hannah didn’t quite understand, but picked up the baby Jesus from the manger.
“Mom can we buy Jesus a present for Christmas?”
Hannah’s mother touched her face and smiled.
