Christmas from our Grandaughter’s view

December 19, 2007 by Dale and Barb McAlister

We just received this note from our daughter, Lori and it sums up exactly what CHRISTmas is all about. Stone is our 7 year old grandson and he likes to know exactly when things are going to happen. Alyssa Belle is 4 1/2 and is our little thinker. She doesn’t usually say much unless it is something important. Here is Lori’s note and I know you will enjoy it and it will bless you this Christmas season as you celebrate HIS birth.


“Stone keeps taking one construction paper ring off a string of them so he knows how many days until Christmas. You know how he likes to know these things. He told Belle yesterday that there are 10 days until Christmas. She walks around for a while, then finally says to me, “There are 10 days til Jesus Day.” I said, “Yes, you’re right.” She pointed up and said, “How are we going to go up there?” I said, “Where?” She said, “You know, where Jesus is. Up there. How are we going to go up there for Jesus Day?”
So I told her it was His birthday and we’re going to celebrate it and all that. It was a big spiel about why we celebrate Christmas.

She listened well. Then she paced a bit and finally said , “So how are we going to go up there?!” ”

Isn’t that neat…….for a child will lead them!!

We wish each of you a blessed CHRISTmas,
