Granny was ready for Christmas.  All the lights on the tree were blinking and the train PaPa made was going around and around the tree.   It was Christmas Eve and all Papa and Granny’s family was there.   It started to snow earlier in the day and now the ground was covered with white snow glistening in the moon light.  Everyone was singing Christmas Carols and having a good time. 

Now the time came, that everyone was waiting on.  No, it was not opening the presents but something greater.  It was the family tradition of going out to the barn and reading the story of the birth of Jesus with all the animals.  Out into the bitter cold they all went to the barn with all the animals listening as PaPa reads out of the bible of the birth of Jesus.  Granny reminds everyone that Jesus is the reason for the season and they all gave thanks.
