This wouldn't totally be childhood but the best Christmas of my life was when Marie said yes to my proposal of marriage. It has made all of the rest of them really special as well. Of course I have had special ones through my entire life because I have always had very enjoyable ones. Even while in the mission field when our Christmas tree was just green streamers taped to the wall in the form of a tree. The year I made the little pencil holders was a memorable one as well because of the hard work of keeping the secret while working on it and then the other Christmases when we would travel to Roosevelt and buy all of our gifts at the Five and Dime store since everything was basically less than a dollar and we could get everything we needed for less than $10.00. I have had good Christmases all of my life and remember the most consistent part of it being the Christmas story on Christmas Eve that we have read every year that I can remember even the year we did it in a snow cave by the front door of our home in Mapleton.
