Reading Christmas Stories

Last night we read Christmas stories by the light of our Christmas tree. We usually start this tradition at the beginning of December and try to read every night until Christmas. Sometimes we light a candle and the children watch the flame as I read. I bought a new book called, A Christmas Dress for Ellen, written by Thomas S. Monson. I love this book. I could hardly read the book outloud. I had to stop several times to compose my cracking voice. I think the best part of the story is that it is a true story. This book is going to be an annual tradition.
