The Best Gift

''I can't wait till Christmas!'' Jimmy Carson said." Its only two more days away!" Jimmy, Timothy," ( Timmy) Jonathan, Andrea,and Joey had been waiting for Sunday for, well, I do not know how long. The outside of the Carson's house was covered i n tinsel and holly,decorations and lights'.' 'Santa Clause will not come down chimney if we are not good.'' said eight year old Timmy. Chad Carson wondered if children knew the true meaning of Christmas.''Children, come here. Do you know the true meaning of Christmas?''Yeah, it's Santa Clause's shouted Jimmy.'' No, guess again. 'Reindeer? Elves? The sleigh?'' ''No, no, no.'' Chad said.'' I wil tell you all. Once an angel named Gabriel appeared to a virgin, Mary.'' ''What is a virgin?'' asked Andrea." A virgin is a person who is not married.'' answered Chad. ''Oh.'' ''Mary was frightened. She wanted the angel to prove that she would have a son named Jesus. Gabriel proved it by saying that her relative,Elizabeth, was going to have a son at her old age .Then Mary believed the angel. Joseph was engaged to Mary. He found out and decided to divorce her quietly. But an angel said to him in dream not to. Chad continued the story until it was done. From then on the children believed in GOD, not Santa Clause.
