One of my favorite Christmas memories was that of last year when my son, Carter Staggs, was only 5 years old.

During the children’s Christmas program at our church, the pastor talked about the candy cane and asked, “Does anyone know the meaning of the candy cane?” Carter answered, “YES!”  He proceeded to tell our Pastor in detail the reason for its shape and colors.  My husband and I were so proud to know that not only did he understand the true meaning of Christmas, but could share this message with others!

Another great memory was Christmas morning when he and his little brother, Charlie, woke to find presents from Santa.  Carter was more excited about showing Charlie everything than he was about his own presents.  Precious memories we will cherish forever!
