The Gift of Christmas

"It came without ribbons. It came without tags.
It came without packages, boxes or bags.
And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before.
'What if Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store?'
What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?"

Dr. Seuss said it well: Christmas is more than what we buy at a store. At this site, we celebrate that "more" by sharing the story of the first Christmas, along with some other holiday goodies.
