It's forty-seven years old ... the snapshot I ran across this morning ... and poor quality, as were most pictures back then. Still, I'm able to see the joy shinning in my children's faces as they discovered all the wonderful beautiful exciting treasures Santa had left under the Christmas tree.
My sweet precious babies ... Only through the eyes of a child could those few toys have appeared wonderful and exciting. In reality, tiny plastic dishes were cheap, miniature table and chairs were second-hand and doll clothes were homemade. Santa didn't have much money that year. Santa never had much money when my children were growing up.
