On Christmas morning, Jim participated in the Willson family tradition of shrimp and croissants for breakfast, as well as present-opening and quality family time. He liked the shrimp a lot, and didn't mind that my Dad teased him by giving him extra antennae.And, he especially enjoyed his new purple scarf. He immediately wanted to go out and make a snowman. When I explained that he couldn't because it was raining, he exclaimed, "Stupid earth weather!" and sulked until I told him the story of Mary and Joseph and a newborn baby who was Emmanuel, God with us, and he was so overcome with emotion and praise that he broke into song with "Joy to the world, . . . " and the day passed pleasantly away.
