Story To Be Read:
The Right Family Christmas Story
Christmas was almost here and Mother RIGHT was
finishing the Christmas baking. Father RIGHT, Susie RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT
returned from their last minute Christmas errands.
"There's not much LEFT to be done," said Father RIGHT as he came into the
kitchen. "Did you leave the basket of food at Church?" asked Mother RIGHT? "I
LEFT it RIGHT where you told me to," said Billy RIGHT." "I don't have any money
LEFT."
The hall telephone rang, and Susie RIGHT LEFT to answer it. She rushed back and
told the family, "Aunt Tillie RIGHT LEFT a package for us RIGHT on Grandma
RIGHT's porch. I'll go over there RIGHT now and get it," she said as she LEFT in
a rush. Father RIGHT LEFT the kitchen and brought in the Christmas Tree.
By the time Susie RIGHT returned, Mother RIGHT, Father RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT
had begun trimming the tree. The entire RIGHT family sang carols as they
finished the decorating. Then they LEFT all the presents arranged under the tree
and went to bed, hoping they had selected the RIGHT gifts for their family.
Now I hope you have the RIGHT present for yourself, because that's all that's
LEFT of our story, except to wish you a Merry Christmas, isn't that RIGHT?
