Her courtship with Adam Lapp is going on six months and Grace cant wait to give him his present: a blue-and-brown buggy blanket she crocheted for him. Yes this Christmas is going to be especially joyful. Yet amid the cheer of snowshoe outings church potlucks and holiday festivities Grace is given a bittersweet reminder of the Christmas story.
