ReplyDeleteThis is such a great story! Listening to a NightLight Story was the activity we pulled from our Countdown to Christmas jar ... and we had just finished decorating our tree and sharing our ornament stories ... this was the perfect way to end our evening. We especially love that Chilly has an encounter with Santa!
