A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE FROM CLAUDE HOUSE

And the Grinch, with his Grinch feet, ice cold in the snow, stood there puzzling and puzzling, "How could this be so??"

"It came without ribbons!. It came without tags!. It came without packages, boxes, or bags!!."

He puzzled and puzzled, till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something, he hadn't before.

"Maybe", thought the Grinch, "Christmas doesn't come from a store. Perhaps, Christmas means a little bit more".

From all at Claude, including myself, hoping your holidays are magical and filled with wonder.
