CHRISTMAS BREAK
On the day that school would turn out for Christmas, we were
released early to go to the downtown parade where Santa arrived on his very own
trailer. They set up an igloo on the courthouse lawn where Santa would take in
the children to hear their requests. I remember it being very dark in the igloo
and probably would not have wanted to do this, but Santa always gave large
lollipops that were completely different from anything that could be bought. I
loved them, so I endured the igloo. Our church would host a Christmas party in
the basement for age appropriate children where we brought a gift to place in
the gift exchange. I sang in the youth choir and we would rehearse many of the
Christmas hymns leading up to Christmas.
