The Best Christmas Present That I'Ve Ever Received

For the last two Christmases, I have grieved. But in 2012 my friend gave me the best Christmas present that I've ever received. She gave me a ride to Sneedville so that I could spend Christmas with Mom and Dad. I was a very fortunate person but sadly, just several months later I lost what I had. I had no idea that within a matter of months that both Mom and Dad would both be dead. I spent the last Christmas with my parents, there would be no Christmases ahead. If Tammy hadn't given me that ride, I wouldn't have been able to be with Mom and Dad on Christmas. This time of the year is no longer easy for me because what happened filled my heart with darkness.
