I remember as I child always getting an orange in the bottom of my stocking. Kids today would laugh at that but it was a real treat back then.
Another was making our way home from relatives on a cold, cold Christmas night. The old windshield on the old car kept freezing up (on the inside of the car)and my Father didn't know if we could make it home. My parents were worried and wondered what could they do. I don't remember who thought if it but my Christmas gift saved the day. I had gotten one of those dime store sets of bath gel, perfume and bath salts from my cousins. Dad soaked his handkerchief with the perfume and kept wiping a little circle of clear glass in the windshield. That perfume had to be 50 proof alcohol because it really worked. By God's grace, and that little bottle of perfume and we arrived home safely.
