It's dark outside now. It's 7PM. The kids down the street just finished up caroling on our front porch. Two girls and one boy. The girls were about 12 and 14, and the boy is 5. The little boy, Colin carried a lantern, and they sang several Christmas carols. They were great! They sounded great! And we felt great too. And they all three sang to. We asked where the older brother was. Mason is 9, and his little brother said. "he chickened out".
They all stood there on the porch, beside our lighted outside tree holding up sheets of music, just like in the old time pictures on Christmas cards, and sang their hearts out.......even little Colin, and he can't read.
If I hadn't had a lump in my throat. I'd have taken a photo.

How wonderful of them to bring the Christmas spirit to you! Merry Christmas!
We don't need the photo ... it's on lots of cards.
Merry Christmas to you, your family, the Flower Girls and Gnomey.

PS My Word verification is 'winter' ........... a little winter would be nice today here Down Under ..... Most of Sout Australia has catastrphic bush fire warnings!
Glad you were moved by the wee ones singing, may you enjoy many Xmases.
Merry Christmas to you toO! The little Carolers sure know how to brighten the Spirit of the Special day doing what they did! I hope that stays with them their whole lives.
Thank you for sharing. I'm housebound here and cant go out to be with anyone today. So your story was special to me.
