Stacy was going to work on a new project researching the December Christian holidays in America. Schools were starting for students. Stacy had been asked to come and speak to the kindergarteners on this topic and to have a project the students could make as a gift for their parents.
"You are family! We want you to come!" Anna finished explaining to Stacy excitedly. Togi was listening to Stacy's conversation with Anna on the speakerphone. He couldn't believe it; they would go on holiday, Christmas, to visit Anna's family in Toms River, New Jersey!
Togi learned all about God's gifts and the real meaning of Christmas with Stacy's presentation at school. The three candy canes inside the card stood for the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Then they rode the auto train from Sanford, Florida, to Lorton, Virginia. They drove to Toms River to Mena's home. It was cold outside and was already dark. "Let's get inside! It is freezing out here!"
They experienced Lenny's and Brooklyn Pizzeria, Silverton's Pharmacy and Gift Shop, Advent Celebration and Gingerbread House, and learned all about Advent prayer devotions, Christmas Eve traditions, and Christmas celebration with family! Christmas with Anna and her family was so enjoyable in Toms River, New Jersey!
Togi and Stacy felt blessed to share the holiday with everyone and learn about Christmas traditions. May you, the reader, find joy in this book! Merry Christmas!
