One of my fondest Christmas memories was also one of our family’s bleakest（最令人沮丧的）.We were just little kids, and on Christmas Day mom us all around her to tell us, , that there would be no presents because all we really wanted was to for our daddy. He was very sick. I don’t remember anything else except four little girls surrounding my mother, crying a miracle（奇迹）
At that very moment, someone loudly on the door. Behind him was a merry group of soldiers from the Army base where my father as a minister. News had that we were in trouble, and his colleagues knew we needed some .
With all the excitement ,even my dad in a blanket to keep warm , came down and sat in front of a roaring fire in our room to watch his children be by good Samaritans（乐善好施的人）. The presents were unwrapped, and we girls packages and found a doll each and four board games.
What is to me is that I don’t even remember what sickness my father was suffering from.I remember an evening of laughter and There were no expensive toys but priceless moments of friendship and fun given by young men who knew that a family was having a(n) rough time . They gave their time and their attention to little children who needed to laugh.
The most important thing in life aren’t things. And what about the true spirit of holidays? I hope we all are able to remember a thing about the holidays that stirs(搅动)our heart , that isn’t really a thing at all, but the smile on a child’s face because we take a moment to hug or wipe away a tear.
