Outside the winds blow and snow falls, but inside a young family sits together enjoying a Yuletide meal. The warm fire in the hearth radiates as does mirth. The young lad stands, eager to give his mum and dad the gift he worked hard to obtain. His parents exchange warm glances, love evident in their eyes. "Go ahead, love, you may be excused."
Swiftly he runs to the counter and digs deep within the lowest drawer and emerges triumphantly with two small pieces of paper for a trip down the Brandywine. His mother looks at him, love and pride growing. "It's perfect," is all she can utter as she sweeps him in a loving embrace.
