Publisher's Synopsis
Have you faced Christmas with dread? The most joyous time of year, but where is the joy and peace when there is no money in the bank? Afraid of the disappointment on the faces of your family on Christmas morning.

Alternately, they warm their hands and turn around to warm their bottoms. One of the girls announces the obvious. "Mom and Dad don't have any money this year. So, let's just tell them we don't need gifts this Christmas. Yes, a Christmas with expectations of sacrifice would become an Unexpected Christmas filled with gifts and blessings.
