Читать книгу Snowbound with the Sheriff - Lauri Robinson - Страница 5

Dear Reader,

While writing this story I was reminded of a Christmas when all three of our sons were young. A tradition at our house is that we open the gifts from each other on Christmas Eve, and then at night, while everyone is sleeping, Santa Claus brings his gifts.

That year a winter storm hit on Christmas Eve. Shortly after we’d opened gifts, the power went out. With candles and flashlights, my husband and I put the boys to bed and then started into putting out the gifts from Santa Claus. A few items were labeled “some assembly required” and it took us hours, by candlelight, to get those toys put together. We’d just climbed into bed when the power came back on. We’d completely forgotten to shut off light switches and other items. The lights and noise that overcame the house awoke the boys, who of course rushed downstairs to see what Santa had brought.

I hope you enjoy Chayston and Violet’s story, and I hope you take a moment to relish memories of past Christmases.

With Holiday Blessings,

Lauri
