it was amazing

bookshelves: christmas, fiction, short-stories

I read this short story several years ago, and I remember being very touched by the Christmas spirit it imparted to me. Tonight (12 December 2019) I had the great fortune of attending the annual Christmas concert in Salt Lake City in which Richard Thomas (John Boy from The Waltons) performed a superb dramatic reading of this story, along with inter-woven music from the Tabernacle Choir & Orchestra, to an audience of tens of thousands. Wonderful.

Update (December 25, 2021): I read this again, aloud, to my family for Christmas. It was as good as ever.
