This is such a nice story. It shows the true meaning of Christmas at the end. The happiness and togetherness and kindness it should bring.
The cruelness in the beginning is changed to happiness in all.
Congrats on winnng the contest.

What a sweet story. I can see why it won the contest. All the details in the boy's head really bring this to life. I especially like the way Mom is so careful not to tear the wrapping paper.
Nicely done!

Congratulations on your win. This is a great Christmas story. I was engaged with every word. Thank you for letting it have such a wonderful, happy ending. Your story made me feel good. What more can you ask of a story? Good job. Thanks so much for writing about Sister Rose.

Comment from Dawn Munro
What a touching and truly beautiful story. I remember one very much like it from my own youth, only it was my mother's dress she was altering for me to wear for the music festival that year.
Thank you for sharing this -- it makes a special gift for your readers, IMHO. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from Therese Caron
I love this story. It is so full of warmth and love that a son feels for his mother. I love the excitement he feels when he sees her walk into church with her new dress on. It shows how some children do realize the sacrifices their parents make, and the plight that some of their parents are in despite hard work. What a touching story! Great work!

Comment from Bill Schott
This is an excellent story that captures all the blessings we can give and get, especially in the Christmas season when we are so keen to do so. The brilliant smiles generated by the giver, the receiver, and all witnesses is the stuff of miracles and blessings.
