We were GRINCHED!!!!Christmas morning, after bursting through the wrapped living room entrance, Laila and Tru found only this......
On the wall above the fireplace was a note and 16 bags were on the coffee table.
The note read......
After being dumbfounded and checking to see if presents were in the family room instead....Laila finally smiled.
Tru and Laila quickly got dressed and drove into Salt Lake.
The note read......
(Does Tru look like a who down in whoville?)
Tru and Laila quickly got dressed and drove into Salt Lake.
Tru was hoping to find some people out and about in Pioneer park...but they were not. Many were lined up outside the Homeless shelter and he said their 16 bags just weren't going to cut it. So they walked down the street a bit and were able to hand out the bags one by one. Some were gruff, some were grateful. One guy came back twice, teary and thankful. Laila said he made it all worth it
When Tru and Laila returned, Laila ran into the living room and it was all put right. Tree back up, stockings filled, decorations in place and presents!
The Grinch had restored Christmas!!!!
Tru said, "Obviously the Grinch is a woman because no man would go to all of this trouble."
Thankful, loving hearts grew three sizes this day.
